About This Item
London: William Kimber, 1961. First edition, first printing, This is a very good (or better) copy. The dust wrapper, donning a painted portrait of Moss, is slightly sunned at the spine. The spine tops are bumped and there are a few small closed tears present. It correctly shows the 25s. price. The boards are sharp in the original publisher's black cloth with gilt titling. The text blocks are bright and white throughout, but with some very light marks on the bottom edge. The author has flat signed in blue ink to the full title page. Overall, this is a very good (or better) copy of a fine signed title.
