Sobre este artículo
London: Jonathan Cape,, 1998. First edition, first impression, signed by the author on the title page and dated 10 September 1998. This is a pre-publication copy as the book was published in October 1998. As noted by the dust jacket blurb, this is an "utterly original, deeply moving and very funny... story of Raymond Briggs's parents from their first chance encounter to their deaths, told in Briggs's unique strip-cartoon format". The book won the "Best Illustrated Book of the Year" at the 1999 British Book Awards and was adapted into an animated film which was released in 2016. Octavo. Original brown boards, lettering to spine in gilt. With dust jacket. Colour illustrations throughout by the author. Minor bump to rear cover, jacket not price-clipped: a near-fine copy in a fine jacket.
