Richard Brautigan THE HAWKLINE MONSTER 1974 True First Edition DJ MINT No Scuffs. The Hawkline Monster: A Gothic Western Richard Brautigan | Simon & Schuster, 1974 True First Edition / First Printing This is a definitive copy for the serious 20th-century counterculture collector. The Hawkline Monster is Brautigan’s surrealist masterpiece—a "Gothic Western" following two hitmen hired to eliminate a monster lurking in the ice caves beneath a Victorian mansion. While most surviving 1974 copies suffer from heavy "whitening" or rubbing on the matte black jacket, this specific volume is a rare find in this state of preservation. Collector’s Highlights: Confirmed First Printing: Stated "First printing" with a full 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 number line on the copyright page. First Issue Jacket: Original $5.95 price remains unclipped and intact. Exceptional Condition: No edge wear or scuffing to the jacket; the text block is tight, square, and feels unread.
