Alien The Illustrated Story

[sevrin]

I bought this in 1982 at Forbidden Planet in Denmark Street and what a marvelous book it is. Fantastic artwork and great colourisation. I lost it some years ago and would love to find a copy again

Someone at the "Aliens and Predators" site (http://aliensandpredators.tumblr.com/) thoughtfully posted the thing in its entirety, I believe.

I've got a copy my older brother bought when the film first came out. It's a great book, my copy is still in great condition too. If you can find it, snatch it up.

Like you, sevrin, I had a copy way back when and lost it.

A few years back, I was meeting a friend at a restaurant in another town and I had arrived early. To kill time, I was kicking around the block and found a store that specialized in used books. I stopped in and saw that book on one of the front displays for a ridiculously low price and I snapped it up. Good thing, as the store went out of business the following week.

Great book! Found my copy on Amazon about 5 years ago. Amazon currently has (4) used copies ranging in price.

Just wish the Alien was steel grey instead of poo brown. I also had this as a kid along with the Photo Book, board game and baseball cap.
