Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First American Edition. 8vo. Pp. [1-4], 5-222. Foreword by Peter Leighton. Frontis. photo portrait of Burchett. Illustrated throughout with some 14 black-and-white photos. Bibliography. Bound in red cloth with lettering stamped on spine in gilt.…Slight dust-soiling to top edge, else a bright copy in the price-clipped dust jacket that shows just a trifle edge-wear. First American edition, published the same year as the British first edition (Oldbourne Book Company). The Paul Rand dust jacket illustration and typeface is a triumph of restrained design, subtly evoking a carnival midway. Increasingly scarce, especially in desirable condition. Dust jacket now enclosed in a removable, clear archival sleeve. Paul Rand (dust jacket illustration) (illustrator).
