Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First edition. Unpaginated. Title pages and verse prologue, followed by a dozen openings, each with an illustration facing a verse satirising the progress of women's fashion from Ancient Egypt to the 1920s. Contents bright and clean. [The bookseller Peter Ellis says that a copy of this book had r…ecently come to light, which Connolly had inscribed with an explanation, not only that 'Presto' was McCarthy, but that he himself contributed the Prologue and the final stanza: thus the present title is Connolly's first appearance in a book.] c.15.5x12.5cms, in the original quarter binding of black cloth with yellow boards, decorated with a further scissor cut. The narrow spine edge is dappled where it has lost much of its black sheen. Otherwise a near fine copy.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (first printing). Small square 8vo. Unpaginated. Cloth-backed decorated paper-covered boards, lettered in black at the upper board. Binding just a fraction tender at several gatherings. A very good copy in lightly creased, marked and nicked…non-price-clipped dust wrapper, with a small area of loss from the head of the unprinted spine panel, and a second smaller area of enclosed loss. A verso prologue precedes twelve stanzas printed to the versos only, with splendid scissor cuts to each adjacent recto. An unaccredited Cyril Connolly (then but 24 years old) contributes the prologue and the final stanza and this is therefore his first appearance in bookform (for which he was paid £5 and supper at Kettners). Most uncommon, and much more so with the dust wrapper.
