About this Item

Stiff white illustrated wrappers, staple bound. Sixteen pages of paper doll cutouts to dress E.D. Ward Bear (bear on front and back covers). Illustrated and produced by Edward Gorey. First edition. Signed by Gorey on rear cover in typical fashion by using his pseudonym Dogear Wryde, written directly above the crossed out printed version. Dogear Wryde was one of the many anagrams of the author's name used over the years as both author and illustrator, several of the more familiar being Ogdred Weary, Ms. Regera Dowdy, and Eduard Blutig. No previous ownership marks. A very nice copy with sharp corners, clean unmarked interior and only a hint of cover soiling to rear wrapper below hinge. Near fine. Toleando A87.

Store Description

We are a generalist bookseller who has been selling online since 2003. Our goal is to provide our customers with the best books at the best prices. As a used and antiquarian seller all of our copies are unique and our stock is limited by our ability to source new material from a variety of venues. We strive to describe our books as accurately as possible and have embarked on a policy of adding at least one photograph for each new listing added. Older entries in our database may not include a picture, if this is so please request one and we will gladly send it to you via email.
