First edition, with publisher's $7.95 price intact on unclipped front flap. A scarce autobiographical work by the famed Alice of Alice's Restaurantillustrated with black-and-white photographs. This copy has had structural repair: the entire text block was reseated by a previous owner using PVA glue. The split in the endpapers remains visible, and the front flyleaf and pastedown are slightly misaligned as a result. Despite the amateur but careful repair, the binding now holds and the book reads cleanly. Pages are neat and unmarked, apart from a pair of stray pen strokes to the front and rear endpapers. A period newspaper clipping is laid in at the front. The jacket is lightly rubbed, with a couple of shallow edge chips and some modest soiling to the rear panel and board surfaces.
