Description

Banting's surreal full page illustrations, printed in monochrome blue throughout, accompany equally unusual snatches of 'conversation', never less than engaging. Bar light toning to stock, all is in VG internal order. A little minor spotting to endpapers. Small signature of former owner, noted artist Kenneth Coutts-Smith (1929-1981) to head of fep. Blue boards a little worn, lightly marked and rather dulled. A good copy, with an interesting association. 4to. 57pp
