520 pages: edited by Mark Dawidziak. Introduction by Ray Bradbury, dustjacket art by Harry O. Morris. Includes Matheson's script for I AM LEGEND which had been purchased by Hammer Films in the U.K. in the sixties, but the British Censor Board called for two pages or revisions due to ''gruesomeness'', which Matheson would not make. The letter is reprinted with the script. This is Matheson's vision of his classic novel, which is far better than the two films that don't come close to doing justice to the book. Matheson was also the first to wrrite a Dracula script based on the Bram Stoker novel. Filmed in 1974 for television by the late Dan Curtis (starring Jack Palance), both Matheson's screen treatment and script are included. .LIMITED EDITION: 552 copies printed (52 lettered) od which this is one of 500 numbered copies signed by the author and editor. Laid in is the separate chapbook ''The Funeral: Screenplay by Richard Matheson'' eight pages, cover art by Harry O. Morris), limited to 552 copies, which was given to customers who bought BLOOD LINES directly from the publisher. Fine copy in a fine dustjacket. N° de réf. du vendeur 54458
