Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The first edition ( Scribners A to copyright page ) published by Scribners in 1952. Bound in publisher's blue cloth with white letterbox to spine and front board. This copy has been inscribed ' To Mother, With Love, Dawn. ' Quite obviously not inscribed to Powell's biological mother - who died when she was in her infancy - or to her stepmother - whom Powell despised so profoundly that she left home at a young age. This book came to us ( originating on the west coast ) as one of four books inscribed by Powell, all with love, and presumably from the same owner. Recipient clearly a long time and very close friend of Powell's. A very good copy of the book with a touch of rubbing to the lower edges and two short impressions to the top of the front board. ( one of which has a streak of whitening.) Dust jacket very good with some wear to the edges and tips. Small chip to base of rear panel and a larger triangular chip to top edge of rear panel. While none of Powell's books can be described are readily found signed, A Time to be Born appears to be particularly uncommon. Please note that significant efforts to determine the identity of Mother have been fruitless. Inscribed by Author(s).
