Description:
Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1989. First edition. Paperback. Very Good. Small, stapled wrappers. Nearly square. A slender artist book collaboration between Hamilton and Raw. 4 pp printed on rectos only. A very good example. The inner pages are shorter and narrower than the printed paper covers which tends to lead to small creases at the edges of the covers. Also,, this copy has a crease on the rear panel. Still, a decent enough copy of an uncommon title.
