Condition: Near Fine
Description: **Signed, limited edition!** A Near Fine 8vo Turret Books hardcover and dust jacket! Copy no. 75 of 100 numbered copies specially bound and signed by both authors on the rear limitation page. (The print run for this edition of the Alf letter, the first U.K. Edition and the fourth overall, included an additional 250 copies that were neither numbered nor signed.) The contents, which include a frontispiece and October 21, 1968 preface by Henry Miller, the 'Alf letter' (with a 1938 foreword and a 1944 preface), and a November 1968 epilogue by Alfred Perles, appear like new. The covers have a bit of bowing or lift at the fore-edge but are otherwise excellent. The dust jacket, with the cover painting by Henry Miller, has a tiny tear or nick at the the head of the front spine edge, but is otherwise like new. Also included (apparently as issued) is a clear plastic jacket cover that has some corner tears or chips including a one-and-one-half inch tear in the front lower corner, plus some rubbing from shelf wear. No ex-library markings!
