    I was delighted to learn that Penguin paperbacks of the scripts of The Quatermass Experiment and Quatermass II had been published in 1959 and 1960. The seller had excellent copies of these rare first editions together. I placed my order - The same day I had tracking information! I watched as the items made their way from Australia to the U.S. They arrived safely packed and exactly as described - I am extremely proud of these books and can't wait to read them. Fantastic value and communication!
