About this Item
8vo. Teal green cloth with gilt spine lettering, pictorial dust jacket. xii, 333pp. Good plus/good plus. Inoffensive irregular dampstain to bottom couple inches of binding and jacket, though text block largely untouched; jacket faintly edgeworn and rubbed, with spine a bit darkened. Decent first edition of this collection of interviews with the popular Chicago novelist. On the front flyleaf, both interviewer and subject sign in black fineline. Donohue inscribes it "For Burt -- / -- Shag / HEF Donohue / @ Strand Books / NYC / 8/25/75," and beneath this much bolder Algren also signs, dating it "NYC Oct. 75" and adding his trademark seated cat sketch. Copies of this title signed by Donohue are occasionally seen and copies signed by Algren once in a great while, but this is the first example we have encountered signed by both. Despite condition, a fairly attractive example and most unusual. BRUCCOLI A 10. Seller Inventory # 49314
