Price: US$1950.00 + shipping

Condition: Fine

Description: A Fine copy of the book in a Near Fine dust jacket. Jacket price clipped and with an early price written on the front panel (now partially erased). Also a note at the top of the front flap attributes the inscription to "Bush Hunter - Hollywood actor." Inscribed by the author: For Bush! Ray Bradbury ****************** The Vintner Himself Signs Twice - To Prove His Friendly Wishes Ray Bradbury Aug. 22, 1963." A lovely copy with a generous full-page inscription. Born from a short story that first appeared in Gourmet Magazine (1953), Dandelion Wine is an intimate semi-autobiographical reflection of a youthful summer spent in Illinois. Set in the fictional Green Town (a stand in for his hometown of Waukegan), the novel explores the rich inner life of a twelve-year-old boy, based on the author himself. Bradbury's evocative prose captures the beauty of life, loss, and power of nostalgia. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket.
