Space Exploration

VERNE, JULES From The Earth to the Moon. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1922 8vo. Publisher's illustrated red cloth, spine titled in gilt. SIGNED ON THE FLY-LEAF AND HALF-TITLE BY TEN APOLLO ASTRONAUTS: "WALT CUNNINGHAM. APOLLO 7", "FRANK BORMAN. APOLLO 8 CDR", "DAVE SCOTT. APOLLO 16 CDR. APOLLO 9 CMP", "TOM STAFFORD. APOLLO X CDR. ASTP CDR", "BUZZ ALDRIN. APOLLO XI LMP", "JIM MCDIVITT. APOLLO 9 CDR", "JAMES LOVELL. APOLLO 13 CDR", "AL WORDEN. APOLLO 15 CMP", "CHARLIE DUKE. APOLLO 16 LMP", "MICHAEL COLLINS. APOLLO XI CMP". Neil Armstrong mentioned "From the Earth to the Moon" during a television broadcast back to Earth from the spacecraft on July 23, 1969, the day before he and the rest of his crew mates returned to Earth. "A hundred years ago, Jules Verne wrote a book about a voyage to the Moon. His spaceship, Columbia [sic], took off from Florida and landed in the Pacific Ocean after completing a trip to the Moon. It seems appropriate to us to share with you some of the reflections of the crew as the modern-day Columbia completes its rendezvous with the planet Earth and the same Pacific Ocean tomorrow."

Verne, Jules Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas. Boston: James R. Osgood, 1873 [1872] 8vo. Original pictorial orange-brown cloth, stamped and lettered in gilt and black; skillfully rebacked, a little cocked, light shelfwear with some exposure at corners. Clamshell box. The significantly rare first American edition of Verne's marine masterpiece, one of only about 15 extant copies. "The rarest milestone in the science fiction genre." (Arthur B. Edwards, "Collecting Jules Verne," Firsts, Vol. 6, no. 7/8, 1996). Bound from the same sheets as the British edition, which was published a few weeks earlier, it sold rapidly and was then reissued with a new cover design featuring Captain Nemo with a sextant. The jellyfish vignette is therefore exclusive to this elusive first edition, which also missed the final "S" in "Seas" in the title. "Most of the surviving copies [of the Osgood edition, as here] were... bound in green cloth, but single copies of blue, maroon and an odd salmon color exist" (Edwards). First serialized from 1869 to 1871, Vingt Mille Lieues sous les Mers was originally published in French. It was then translated into English, following Samson Low's acquisition of the English rights in 1870. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas was translated by Lewis Page Mercier who, in error, changed the line "Under the Seas" to "Under the Sea", a mistake which persists to this day. The first American edition by Osgood appeared in late 1872. REFERENCE: Taves & Michaluk V006; Myers, 56
