Sobre este artículo
London, United Kingdom: Collins, 1967. Book. Very Good +. Hardcover. 1st Edition. First UK Edition, First Printing. This is the true first edition, first printing (first impression) with 1967 and no statement or reprint to the copyright page In a very good plus to near fine jacket which is not price clipped (21s) it still retains the original pink to the spine, lightly faded. Most copies have faded to white, the front panel is also still pink. Binding tight with clean pages. light rubbing to the boards. Always uncommon and now more so since it reached a new audience when a 50th Anniversary Edition was published in 2017. One of the finest pieces of prose of the 20th century and a very uncommon true first of this stunning book..
