Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Limited Edition. Full-Leather Edition and SIGNED by the Author, this gorgeous example of book production has one other reason all collectors; Walker Percy wrote an introduction which is exclusive to this issue. A Rolls Royce production standard for a riveting book of memoirs. This gorgeous special edition was produced exclusively for Franklin for their members only. Dark green Cromwell leather, reserved for book binding; marbled endpapers; gilt edged pages; acid proof paper; and it is signed on a special front page, with the tissue guard in place. Beautiful typography, the sort that does not call attention to itself, but to the words of the text. This is a great edition for the collector, because it is built to last. And frankly that is the way the author wrote it, which makes this an heirloom production. One of the greatest 20th Century writers, and this is one of his RARE signed copies.

Hard Cover. Dust Jacket Included. First Edition. First printing of the author's first book, which won the National Book Award in 1961. Very good to near fine in a very good dust jacket. Tiny, insignificant mark to the bottom edge of the page block (not a remainder mark); very slight bump to top front corner. The jacket has light edgewear and a small internal mend at the top of the spine. $3.95 price is present on front flap. Signed by the author on the title page. With a short, two page ALS dated July 10, 1961, tipped to the front pastedown: Percy declines to contribute to the magazine SHOW (which is in its early days). The recipient of the letter was the original owner of this copy, which bears both his signature and his bookplate. Finally, affixed to the front endpaper opposite the letter is a very short clipping: "This is one of the poems of Walker Percy, student at Greenville High School, which won first honors in the State High School Press Association contests." The poem is printed in the clipping, and appears to date from the 1930's. Letters from Percy contemporary with his first book are very uncommon. An exceptional copy of this groundbreaking novel, housed in a custom clamshell box with leather spine. Signed by Author.
