Sobre este artículo
New York: Doubleday & Company, 1980. Stated first edition. Ultra-rare title; first and only printing. Mustard boards, black cloth spine wrap, gilt spine titles, moderate shelf wear, rub, discoloration. Pages near fine, no writing. Brownish-orange endpages. Original dust wrapper, moderate chip, rub, spine sticker-pull; unclipped 15.95, protected in new clear sleeve. Classic jacket illustration by J. Pendley Smith. Near very good first edition in good wrapper. In this startling re-interpretation of age-old symbolism Talbott argues that the "Great God" or "Universal Monarch" of the ancients was not the sun, but Saturn, which once hung ominously close to the earth and visually dominated the heavens. Many illustrations, symbolical and archaeological. Printed in the USA. 419 pages. Insured post.. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall. Book.
