Condition: Very Good. Nummer 667 of unknown number of copies -- the book was sent to all the members of the Gesellschaft der Freunde der Deutschen Bücherei. An attractive printing in terms of paper, the Fraktur font, the overall design of the page, albeit not the most uncommon edition of the work. 4to. 25 by 19.5 cm. 61 pp. With a folded sheet "Prospectus", which we think was more like a printed cover letter equivalent, with details about the book. This has printed content on the rectos only, or two unpaginated pages. Some tearing of the "dust jacket" -- the translucent wax paper that covers the patterned paper pastedown. And the tearing penetrates into the spine's interior. Also some blistering of paper pastedown on spine. Wax paper has some stains, and it has also yellowed. Interior is clean, with light age toning to leaves, and overall a very good copy. Accompanying piece of ephemera without any issues or defects. Fair ("Dust Jacket" is merely a layer of paper, separate from paper pastedown, covering boards, without flaps but secured along edges) Semi-Rigid Boards. Paper pastedown on boards and spine First Edition thus. Numbered copy -- limited edition.

Condition: Good. Letterpressed prospectus on laid paper, 8.5"x 11", folded. Very good. Undated. Herb Yellin (1935-2014) was the highly respected publisher and founder of Lord John Press, considered by many to be one of the most important small presses of the 20th century. His close personal relationships with many significant writers resulted in an impressive number of unique, collectible,signed limited edition books. Working with some of modern literature's biggest names-Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, John Updike, Eudora Welty, and Joyce Carol Oates among them-and entertaining his personal fascination with Hollywood, Yellin was able to create a new realm for Lord John Press combining the two fields; several books, including The Lord John Film Festival, were the result.
