About This Item
Garden City, NY: Shasta, 1984. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Fine/Near Fine. 8vo., 227pp. Beautiful First Edition. Bound in black cloth with titles in silver on spine. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear. A touch of surface rubbing on the rear board and a bit of innocuous off-setting to gutters. Very attractive unclipped wrapper, ($3.00), has some fairly mild wear to the spine ends and tips. Light soiling to rear panel. Still fresh and bright with no creases, chipping, toning or tears. Signed by the author on the front paste-down. A very pretty collectable copy.
