A SPANIARD IN THE WORKS by LENNON, John:

London: Jonathan Cape. 1965. First edition, first printing. First edition, first printing. Signed by John Lennon. Publisher's original laminated pictorial boards. Illustrated throughout with line drawings by the author. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm with some rubbing of the laminate at the spine extremities. The contents with the previous owner's name neatly to the edge of the front pastedown are otherwise clean and bright throughout. An excellent example of the multi-talented musician, author and artist's second book following 'In His Own Write'. Scarce and highly desirable in signed state. Signed by John Lennon in blue ink on the front endpaper. Provenance: signed for the previous owner [who inscribed her name to the pastedown] on 29th July 1966 at Kenwood, Lennon's home on the St Georges Hill estate, Weybridge: "My friend and I went to England in July 1966. We bought the books in London and went to Weybridge / St. George's Hill to the house of John Lennon. A Lady opened the door and asked what we wanted. We showed the books and asked for an autograph. Then John Lennon signed the books". Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
