ONE OF 21 COPIES SIGNED BY EDMUND WILSON. Black leather spine stamped in gilt, decorative blue paper-covered boards. The book and the broadside are in fine condition Item #327014
Laid into the book is the publisher's small broadside (dated "May 15th, 1973"), discussing the publishing history, signed by Jane and Robert Grabhorn (the publishers) [single sheet, measuring 6 by 9 inches, printed on recto only].
The publisher's broadside states (in part): "... Recently when Grabhorn-Hoyem acquired the equipment and accumulated debris of the old Grabhorn and Colt Presses, twenty-one unbound, signed copies of this title were discovered... So it is reasonably certain that up to now this edition has been truly hors commerce."
