First Hardcover Edition; A Near Fine book in a Fine dust jacket. SIGNED by the author directly to the title page. An exceptionally well preserved copy of this diminutive novel, some say the greatest Vampire novel ever written, basis for the fine film starring Will Smith; this book getting quite scarce in collectible condition, rare indeed signed. This copy is in near fine condition with a square, tight binding (likely unread), sharp spine lettering over white boards, and clean white pages free from any markings; the book shows only some mild sunning to the board edges and faint off-setting to the pastedowns and first free papers, else fine. Housed in a clean and brilliant white fine dust jacket that shows only slight rubbing to the top of the back flap and very light age-toning to the flap edges. Overall, a highly presentable and collectible copy with an extraordinary jacket, greatly enhanced by Matheson's signature; a welcome addition to any Matheson or 20th Century Horror…

I Am Legend is a dystopian horror novel by American writer Richard Matheson, first published in 1954. It was influential in the development of the zombie-vampire genre and in popularizing the concept of a worldwide apocalypse due to disease.
