ex libris edith lewis (1 risultati)

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine in Good dust jackets. NF/Good. First two volumes only, as acquired, both have the signature of Edith Lewis on the front flyleaves, who was a magazine editor and domestic partner of writer Willa Cather for 40 years, then as her executor. Red cloth volumes with just light shelf wear, clean, bright gilt stamping to spines, tightly bound, unmarked. Dust jackets are worn, especially volume 1. Bought from The Holiday Bookshop of NYC with seller's tag in back of each book. The series was published in 4 volumes, but I have just the two. Curiously they appear to have been bought separately, with Lewis' signature in volume 1 dated January 1957 and volume 2 dated December 1956. Volume 1 is a first edition; volume 2 is a second printing. Experienced full-time bookseller since 1994. Images may be added by request. Questions welcome.
