Prue, Signed (26 results)

Condition: Very Good. Signed Copy . Signed/Inscribed by author on half title page.

Rudolf Freund (illustrator). Very good condition overall, this mid-century copy of Danny and Prue by Edith Ballantyne is bound in its original blue cloth with a mounted illustration of a sailing vessel to the front board and a matching paper spine label. The binding remains sound and attractive, with light edge wear, minor rubbing, and gentle corner bumping consistent with age. The cloth retains a pleasing, even tone, and the interior is clean, with bright paper and no significant foxing observed. A well-preserved and visually appealing example. Of particular interest is the contemporary presentation inscription on the front free endpaper, reading: "To Carolyn Easley, with the hope that she gets as much pleasure from this story as the author did from writing it. Edith Ballantyne. A good friend of Elsie's." The inscription provides engaging personal context and suggests a close social connection to the author. A charming and distinctive copy, combining solid condition with meaningful inscriptional provenance.

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Maddie Prue is eternal, a Druid sorceress in one era, a raunchy Celtic songstress in another. Her spirit haunts one man, Henry Ryon, who appears to live cursed lives over and over until he discovers the secret of Maddie Prue's terrible death. This haunting, lyrical mystery of loevers trapped in time is filled with fascinating historical detail.
