Ракът със златните щипки - "The Crab with the Golden Claws" - Hardcover - RARE

This is a rare and unique original edition from 1992 in Bulgarian, published by Nika Renaissance.

Details:

Print Run: Only 1,000 copies were produced. Of these, 750 were pulled from circulation and destroyed due to issues with the glue used in the binding.

Year of Publication: While many believe the publication year is 1993, this is incorrect. The mention of "1993" on the back refers to a note from the publisher: "През 1993 година очаквайте нови шест издания" ("In 1993, expect six new issues"). The actual publication year for Ракът със златните щипки is 1992.

Rarity: This is the only album published in Bulgarian with this specific presentation. It was available exclusively in Bulgaria for a limited time. The album was intended for Casterman, but due to quality issues, the contract was terminated, leading to the destruction of most copies.

Condition: The book is in near-mint condition overall. Signs of paper aging and original production flaws can be seen in the photos. Please refer to the images for a closer look.
