HUBBARD, L. Ron "Arctic Wings" [Author Services, Inc., 1991]

HUBBARD, L. Ron. Arctic Wings

Hollywood, CA: Author Services, Inc., 1991. First book edition. Octavo. Publisher’s burgundy leatherette, decoratively stamped in gilt to front board and spine, patterned endpapers. With limitation page stating “special limited edition of 50 copies,” though this format appears to have been more broadly issued. A clean, well-preserved copy. Light, unobtrusive handling wear to boards; gilt bright and intact. Binding firm; interior clean and unmarked. Near Fine.

Issued as part of the “Classic Fiction Series,” presenting Hubbard’s earlier pulp-era aviation adventure fiction, originally written in 1938. The present leatherette-bound issue, with its elaborate gilt decoration, represents a deluxe format within the series rather than a demonstrably scarce limitation.
