About This Item
NY: Lothrop, 1986. 1st Edition, full number Line . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good-. Decent book (signed) and jacket, but very hard to describe given various minor flaws. The good, 9 word sig. insc. 1st endsheet (to Megan 1991). Spine extremities have a good trace wear, as though shelved with some thing atop, Hard to see, also tiny mark bottom fr. board near spine, fine felt pen? Anyway, additionally if I had to guess, I'd say somone managed to drop a heavy, small object at the lower front corner denting it and the initial pages, almost impossible to see, I will try to shoot, but its nearly invisible. Frankly, but for GC signature I'd have passed on this one but apparently the signing is quite rare. Jacket also reads well, but 2 pinhead size holes front edge back board, and a bit of color top at front flap, tiny, red wine?, color transfer from endsheet? Heck if I know. . . Again almost invisible. I will be shooting all of this but expecting the issues to be nearly unseeable. Jacket has good trace of edgewear and toning. Tradition and good business practice demand that such things be noted, but I really think this kind of description is unduly damning. Fotos should help.
