5.7.3 "Dune" Easton Memorial Edition




Description

This article is from the Dune FAQ, by Alan Schwartz with numerous contributions by others.

5.7.3 "Dune" Easton Memorial Edition

"Dune", Frank Herbert (ill. John Schoenherr), Norwalk, Conn. :
Easton Press Pub. (1987).

Memorial collector's edition that contains illustrations, collector's
notes and "Remembrances" by a number of science fiction writers. The
book reproduces the paintings and some (6) of the drawings from "The
Illustrated Dune_. The printing quality on the drawings is lower than in
_The Illustrated Dune", but all things considered - leather binding,
gilt edges, paper quality, satin bookmark, silk lining and extra
material - this is definitely the deluxe Dune edition. (Be warned that
recent reprints of this edition have lacked the silk lining, and have
slight differences in binding and embossing font. They are otherwise
similar to the description above.)

The Memorial Edition is given as a bonus for those subscribing to the
"Masterpieces of Science Fiction" series. You can cancel at any time.
