Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Second Edition. 2ND EDITION. SIGNED BY TRETCHIKOFF. & DATED BY HIM, 1954. NUMBER 812. This copy is NEAR FINE; the text is clear, bright, and unmarked; spiral binding is tight, but front pages show a bit of age; the art repructions are in excellent condition; the vellum paper enclosing the book has aged. The jacket is also near fine: intact, including perfect color and design, the Swan Lake painting on the front of the jacket is excellent except for some wear marks on the spine edge; also there is a smudge bottom lfront at spine. We have a five star rating because of our fulfilment success and because our descriptions are accurate . On foreign sales, because of the heavy weight of this book, we have to charge extra for shipping: however, we will only charge the difference between our regular shipping rate and the extra charge that the U.S.Post Office asks to ship the book. We guarantee: NO NASTY SURPRISES. Signed by Author(s).

Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. About this Item There is a neat flowing hand signature by Tretchikoff and inscription next to his frontispiece portrait: "To Margaret with my sincere best wishes. V. Tretchikoff 19-12-52". Very good condition, clean and tight, in gold titled white leatherette boards. in a very good slipcase decorated with the Dying Swan print as a raised plate on the front. The inside board and the first four leaves have a tiny fully repaired hole . Inscribed to Margaret ("Peggy") Roscoe, who, after her Cape Town years, lived near Hartley, Southern Rhodesia ( now Chegutu, Zimbabwe ), but socialised with Tretchikoff on numerous occasions, including canasta sessions with him and his wife at their splendid mansion in Bishopscourt, Cape Town. Her iconic painting Crayfish Seller, which she bought prior to 1952, was later exhibited in Durban with her permission in 1959, and became one of the subjects of the artist's many and profuse lithographic reproductions, all iconic monuments to mid century "kitsch". She later made a Christmas card of her painting on a raised plate, a scarce original of which is also for sale by us at the time of listing. Inscribed by Author(s).
