Description: First edition. Fine in fine dustwrapper. Inscribed by the author: "for Herb Yellin, once again, upward and onward. Cheers, John." Herb Yellin was the founder and publisher of Lord John Press and the most frequent of Updike's fine press collaborators. He named his press after noting that the list of authors he wanted to publish all shared the same first name, chief among them John Updike, his favorite. *Hub Fans Bid Kid Adieu* became the press's first book in 1977 with 10 more to follow over the next 23 years. Yellin's friendship with Updike grew with each new limited edition benefitting his already enormous Updike collection, with Updike himself contributing copies of new editions of his books - often inscribed. In a 2010 interview with Yellin he noted that Updike ".liked that if anything ever happened to his own collection, he had my collection on the opposite side of the country." A notable association.

Description: First edition of this work by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author. Octavo, original cloth, with 46 illustrations. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author to his friend and golfing partner in the year of publication on the front free endpaper, "For Peter Vermilze matters to be consumed in small tasty bites Merry Christmas John Updike 12/25/99." Updike has also drawn a nice drawing of Santa Claus. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Susan Carroll. Jacket photograph by Steve Buhman. John Updike's fiftieth book and fifth collection of assorted prose, most of it first published in The New Yorker, brings together eight years' worth of essays, criticism, addresses, introductions, humorous feuilletons, and -- in a concluding section, "Personal Matters" -- paragraphs on himself and his work. More matter, indeed, in an age which, his introduction states, wants "real stuff -- the dirt, the nitty gritty -- and not . . . the obliquities and tenuosities of fiction."
