Description

First Edition and First State of the binding. With illustrations, including a self-portrait frontispiece and 11 other portraits from the author's drawings, six portraits from photographs on four glossy plates and four paintings by the author reproduced in black and white on glossy plates. Tall 8vo, publisher's original salmon cloth, the spine lettered in black, in the original dustjacket printed in black and yellow. [iv], 312 pp. A near fine copy, the text-block quite clean throughout with only rare evidence of the usual foxing, the cloth just a touch mellowed at the edges, the jacket is complete without chipping or loss and is only a bit age mellowed, the spine panel tips skillfully strengthened from the rear. A circa 1970s reader has neatly signed his name on the rear paste-down in blue ink and has make some reviews on the rear fly in pencil and a few marginal marks in pencil.
