[x], 206 pp. Bound in publisher's gray boards stamped in blind over black spine cloth lettered in silver. Very Good+ with slight lean to binding, sunning along top edge of boards and foxing to top of textblock edge. Evidence of bookplate removal to front pastedown. In a Near Fine price-clipped dust jacket with light toning to edges and slightly rubbed; red lettering on spine is bright and unfaded, vertical crease to front panel.
The first appearance in book form, following two 1971 issues of Rolling Stone, of Hunter S. Thompson's drugged-out travelogue to/rampage through Las Vegas, with its iconic splattered ink illustrations by Ralph Steadman. It inspired the 1998 Terry Gilliam film by the same name.
