Add to basketScarcer perhaps than the true first edition from 1953, this handsome and compact volume is signed without inscription by the author to the title page. The book is unmarked with no other inscriptions, with just a small amount of foxing to the preliminaries. Cloth to spine top is a little worn and discoloured. Many attractive colour and b/w photographs. The jacket shows some losses, particularly to the spine top and top edge. Unclipped showing 4/6. Very rare signed in this format.

Free 48-hour tracked shipping within the UK for all orders.
In the UK, we normally use Royal Mail. POSTAGE IS FREE WITHIN THE UK.
Different postage rates are applied at checkout for customers ordering from outside the UK. The rates shown are INDICATIVE ONLY based on packages of up to 2kg. Exceptions will be discussed on a case by case basis. POSTAGE MAY BE ADJUSTED UP OR DOWN and you may receive a notification advising a change of charge to your payment method.
We deliberately recycle packaging. Your books will be given much care and attention before dispatch and will be sent in pre-used materials.
As a matter of course, all our books are cleaned sensitively, researched, catalogued, photographed and thus treated with the respect a vintage artefact deserves. We then re-cover most of our books in new, industry standard protective wrappers. These are inert, acid-free, and will not harm the book or dust jacket. We don't do this only if there is already a clean and serviceable wrapper on the book, or if to remove a previous covering would cause damage.
