Item #311584

A signed copy of the contract granting Slovene language publishing rights for To Kill a Mockingbird to a Yugoslav publisher, six years after the novel's original publication in English. Though Lee began signing copies of To Kill a Mockingbird with some frequency later in life, material related to her iconic novel signed either contemporaneously or near-contemporaneously to its original publication is rare on the market.
