The Hand of Memory: Selected Stories and Verse [Signed]

SIGNED LIMITED NUMBERED EDITION. Signed by the author in black ink on colophon page, as called for. Copy number marked as "Complimentary". Limited to 1000 copies, plus 50 out of series. This appears to be one of the 50 out of series copies. Additionally SIGNED & INSCRIBED by the author in black ink on half-title page: "For Jim, with warm regard, Clem". We purchased several items from his collection, so we believe the recipient of the author's inscription is Jim Davidson, who was the editor of Australian literary journal Meanjin [who published this volume] from 1974 to 1982. Illustrated with b&w line drawings by Douglas Annand. Includes laid-in publisher's PROSPECTUS (single folded sheet to form 4 pages, with order form on rear). Printed in Australia. Bound in original grey cloth (canvas) backed by red buckram spine with bright gilt lettering & design, top edge red, pictorial endpapers, maroon ribbon page marker, housed in publisher's black SLIPCASE. No dustjacket issued. A very nice clean tight solid hardcover copy. Slipcase with slight trivial trace of shelfwear, otherwise FINE. xiii + 196pp. Scarce signed limited edition with additional inscription & prospectus. SB-70.…
