About This Item
New York: Land's End Press , 1968. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good Plus/No Jacket. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. N/a. 90pp. 1968. First edition. Folio. Slipcase. A signed limited edition. Upper edge gilt. Signed to the final page by Jack Brussel. This being copy number 780. No inscriptions. A lovely, clean, tight very good plus copy in a similar slipcase. Slight rubbing to one edge of paper onlay to one panel of the slipcase - hardly noticeable. A slight printer's flaw has left slight lifting/creasing to the front paste-down and something similar to the rear paste-down but a bit more noticeable. An 8mm split to the rear inner hinge at the head - and a 1.4cm one to the tail - the rear board is in no way loose - these flaws connected to the aforementioned flaw. A lovely signed copy in similar slipcase.
