Sobre este artículo
Garden City, New York: Doubleday, Page & Company. Very Good+ in Very Good+ dust jacket. 1926. Limited Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Slight wear to tips and head and tail edges of the covers. The dust jacket is sunned and has slight chipping at the rear head edge and the head and tail at the spine. ; Fourteen humorous essays from this master of the genre and novelist, journalist, and poet. Christopher Morley's style is that of a man of letters and his work is dry, subtle humor, not lowest common denominator funny. Each essay illustrated with an ink drawing by Walter Jack Duncan, a noted book and magazine illustrator who drew scenes from WWI Europe for the US government. Copy 83 of a limited edition of 365 and boldly signed by Morley on the limitation page. Backed in black cloth with festive covers of textured black cloth printed with bunches of grapes in purple and gold, over boards. Paper title label to spine. Gilt head of the text block with uncut and rough fore edges. A page or two unopened at the head edge. Paginated differently than the trade edition. A clean, nice copy that hovers between Near Fine and Very Good+ in a Very Good+ dust jacket. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; ix, 289 pages; Signed by Author .
