Thompson on an official bookplate, laid in, this copy is also signed, blotted, doodled and dated on the FFEP by Steadman, also signed on the page by Johnny Depp. .

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is the best chronicle of drug-soaked, addle-brained, rollicking good times ever committed to the printed page. It is also the tale of a long weekend road trip that has gone down in the annals of American pop culture as one of the strangest journeys ever undertaken.
