- 5.7 Are there any differences between _Dune_ series editions?
-
- Apart from cover art, typos and layout difference, these are the only
- known differences between different editions of the _Dune_ series.
- Additional and more specific information is always appreciated.
-
- ---------------
- 5.7.1 _Dune_ first edition
-
- Apparently, the first edition of _Dune_ lacked the appendices found in
- all later editions of that book, with the exception of the Terminology
- of the Imperium glossary (which is located at the beginning of the
- book). Final confirmation on this point is still requested.
-
- ---------------
- 5.7.2 _The Illustrated Dune_
-
- _The Illustrated Dune_, Frank Herbert (ill. John Schoenherr), New
- York : Berkley Pub. (1978, c1965).
-
- _The Illustrated Dune_ was the first and is still the most fully
- illustrated bound edition of _Dune_. It contains eight full-colour
- paintings and 33 ink drawings, in addition to the cover and the standard
- map.
-
- The following is a list of all the paintings:
- -Dawn at the Palace of Arrakeen
- -Baron Vladimir Harkonnen
- -The Sardaukar warriors
- -The flight through the Shield Wall
- -Paul Muad'Dib calling his first sandworm
- -Stilgar and his men
- -Paul administers the oath of the Fedaykin

-
- ---------------
- 5.7.3 _Dune_ Easton Memorial Edition
-
- _Dune_, Frank Herbert (ill. John Schoenherr), Norwalk, Conn. :
- Easton Press Pub. (1987).
-
- Memorial collector's edition that contains illustrations, collector's
- notes and "Remembrances" by a number of science fiction writers. The
- book reproduces the paintings and some (6) of the drawings from _The
- Illustrated Dune_. The printing quality on the drawings is lower than in
- _The Illustrated Dune_, but all things considered - leather binding,
- gilt edges, paper quality, satin bookmark, silk lining and extra
- material - this is definitely the deluxe Dune edition. (Be warned that
- recent reprints of this edition have lacked the silk lining, and have
- slight differences in binding and embossing font. They are otherwise
- similar to the description above.)
-
- The Memorial Edition is given as a bonus for those subscribing to the
- "Masterpieces of Science Fiction" series. You can cancel at any time.

-
- 5.8 Are there any comics and illustrated books about Dune?
-
- ---------------
- 5.8.1 Illustrated books
-
- See subjects 5.3.4, 5.7.2, 5.7.3 and 5.7.4.
-
- ---------------
- 5.8.2 Comic books
-

- the film by David Lynch, based on the novel by Frank Herbert,
- art by Bill Sienkiewicz), New York : Marvel Comics
- Group, distributed by Berkley (1984).

-
- 5.9 Can I get a signed copy of _The Dune Encyclopedia_?
-
- Rumours of signed hardcover copies of the Dune Encyclopedia (DE) have
- lately (98/12/19) been circulating on alt.fan.dune. Dr. Willis E.
- McNelly, who compiled and edited the DE, denies ever having signed
- anything but paperback copies.
-
- ANY SIGNED HARDCOVER COPIES OF THE DUNE ENCYCLOPEDIA ARE FAKE!
-
- However, Dr. McNelly has offered to provide Dune fans with an
- opportunity to have their copies of the DE inscribed with a personalized
- note (meaning that signed copies WITH a personalized note from now on
- need not be fake). This is the information straight from Dr. McNelly:
-
- "A local used book store manager (big SF fan) about half a mile way has
- made the following suggestion based on what I did for him a few weeks
- ago when he got a copy of the DE in and I signed it for him as his
- personal copy.
-
- If DE owners anywhere in the country want their copies signed by me,
- they can be mailed to his bookstore:
-
- The Book Baron,
- 1310 E. Chapman,
- Fullerton, CA 92831.
- Attention: Dr. Willis McNelly
-
- The cost will be
- 1) $3.20 for the priority mail return postage, and
- 2) $7.00 for handling which includes the return envelope,
- for a total of $10.20 US.
-
- (Please note: ALL copies MUST be mailed registered, or via UPS, or some
- other mail mechanism which can be tracked, or at least prove that a copy
- *was* mailed to the bookstore. This is at Hitch's insistence; he is
- concerned that some of the trolls that have dropped in from time to time
- might claim that they mailed one, via regular mail, and try to get
- "compensation" from me or the bookstore owner).
-
- A return paste-on or stick-on address label MUST be included. He will
- call me as they arrive and I will sign the books, with a personal
- inscription, NOT a mere signature, and take them to the PO (100 yards
- away) for mailing. I will use the free Priority Mail envelopes from the
- PO, but the address label is a MUST."
-
- Any further questions should be addressed to John Kenny
- <jkenny5@bellsouth.net>, NOT to Dr. McNelly or the FAQ maintainer.
