About This Item
Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1971. 8vo. pp. 243. Original russet boards, lettered in gilt on spine. Corners very slightly bumped, but a near fine copy in a near fine dustwrapper, a little sunned at spine. 27 illustrations accompanying text. First edition. MALCOLM BRADBURY'S REVIEW COPY, WITH HIS SIGNED BOOKPLATE TO FFEP. With the original review slip laid in, dated 19.4.72. Bradbury's bookplate is dated '1971', which suggests he must have placed it in the book some time after his receipt of it. This US edition of the book, the true first, was sent to him on 19 April 1972, in time for his review to appear in time for the publication of the UK edition on 27 April that year. A very nice copy.
