Description: Shelby, Carroll. The Cobra Story. New York: Trident Press, 1965. 8vo., original full black cloth. 272 pp. First edition, first printing with no statement of printing on the copyright page. Signed and inscribed by Shelby "To Jay, Your Racing Friend Carroll Shelby, 12/13/1965." Fantastic signed copy of this seminal work on the greatest American sports car ever built. Long sought after for its insights into the design of the car and the workings of the mind of Shelby himself. One of the first copies inscribed by Shelby as publication of the title was only one month prior in November of 1965. A rare work in the first printing, especially signed. Near fine in a very good dust jacket which has a few minor bumps and chips, original owner's address stamp on the half title page and the side of the text block. Additional photos happily supplied upon request. All inquiries will receive a prompt reply. All reasonable offers will make quick sales. Check my feedback. You will not be disappointed.
