Rare Book of the Day – Metropolis, Thea von Harbou. First Edition in English.
Dust jacket art doesn't get much cooler than this one: Metropolis, by Thea von Harbou. Here presented as the First Edition in English:
Based on the original screenplay written by German director Fritz Lang and his wife Thea von Harbou in 1924, this novelization was published before the release of the film version on January10, 1927.

The art in the film is equally rad, drawing influences from Bauhaus, Cubist and Futurist design. Here are some iconic images:
