Library Addition: First Edition of C. L. Moore’s Northwest of Earth

Still finishing cataloging books that came in last year after the big Moorcock buy:

Moore, C. L. Northwest of Earth. Gnome Press, 1954. First edition hardback, a Fine- copy with a trace of wear to bottom boards and slight bumping at head, in a Near Fine+ dust jacket with slight edgewear along spine joins, at head and at front points, barest trace of dust soiling to white back cover, a few other traces of wear, and, if you look very closely, the spine is just barely sun-faded, much less than commonly found. All the Northwest Smith and Jirel of Jory stories not found in Shambleau and Others. Currey, page 378, Chalker/Owings (1991), page 201 (“These unique stories belong in every SF library”). Kemp, The Anthem Series, page 231. Bought off a fellow Biblio dealer for $75.
