About This Item
London: Peter Davies, 1060. I am pleased to offer a selection of original dust wrapper art- work by the noted artist Biro painted for the publisher Peter Davies to illustrate the dust wrappers of a number of Leo Bruce 1st editions. All are dust wrapper size and illustrate the front cover and the spine of each title. They appear to be "roughs" painted by the artist to show the publisher what the dust wrapper might look like and some have the artist's comments (in pencil) on the verso of the painting
