Presentation copy, warmly inscribed by the author on the half-title page, "Dear Myron We Lived The Dream Great Days Slim Aarons." Fine in a very good dust jacket. Uncommon signed and inscribed. Since publication in 1974, A Wonderful Time has served as a source of inspiration for art designers and advertising gurus.
