H.G. Wells - The Invisible Man - Scolastic Paperback 1966

Description: "The Invisible Man" by H.G. Wells - SCARCE Paperback - Published in 1966 by Scolastic Book Services (#T 540; 45¢ cover price) - 220 pages - NEAR MINT condition.First published in 1897, The Invisible Man ranks as one of the most famous scientific fantasies ever written. Part of a series of pseudoscientific romances written by H. G. Wells (1866–1946) early in his career, the novel helped establish the British author as one of the first and best writers of science fiction. Wells' years as a science student undoubtedly inspired a number of his early works, including this strikingly original novel. Set in turn-of-the-century England, the story focuses on Griffin, a scientist who has discovered the means to make himself invisible. His initial, almost comedic, adventures are soon overshadowed by the bizarre streak of terror he unleashes upon the inhabitants of a small village. Notable for its sheer invention, suspense, and psychological nuance, The Invisible Man continues to enthrall science-fiction fans today as it did the reading public over 120 years ago. Again, this SCARCE book is in NEAR MINT condition and very difficult to find in such good shape. Please see the scan for the great artwork on the cover and so you can judge the condition for yourself (unlike many other booksellers, who post generic scans, the book in my scan is the one you will get). No collection of H.G. Wells books is complete without this one. You can try to buy this book for less money from one of those eBay booksellers with hundreds, if not thousands of negatives (you know the ones I refer to) and be lucky if the book is delivered to you in the stated condition (if you even get it at all), or you can buy it from me and be assured of a prompt delivery and of receiving a quality item true to the condition indicated.
