Aggiungi al carrello#48 of a limited edition of 650 copies (per publisher's rear colophon). [10], 134, [3] pages. Hardcover: H 23.5cm x L 15.5cm. No dust jacket as issued. Blue cloth well rubbed with some staining; shallow cloth loss at frayed spine ends; board corners lightly bumped with slight wear to rear board's bottom corner. Ink markings on f…ront endpapers and at bottom of page 21; past owner's ink signature and personal doodle at half title page with ink markings at page center of which one intrudes upon the title lettering; a few scattered small stains to leaves which, overall, remain clean. Binding is firm. A good+ copy of an uncommon book. Greenville, Mississippi's Levee Press, led by principals Hodding Carter (1907-1972), Ben Wasson (1899-1982), and Kenneth Haxton (1919-2002), may have only issued four titles (with a combined "official" print run of 2635 copies) in seven years but the fine press is placed among the elite in American publishing history. This posthumous William Alexander Percy title was The Levee Press' final title preceded by THE MERCHANT OF BRISTOL by Shelby Foote in 1947, MUSIC FROM SPAIN by Eudora Welty in 1948, and NOTES ON A HORSETHIEF by William Faulkner in 1950. Title page and section title page silhouette tree decorations by Newcomb College-trained Greenville, Mississippi artist Elizabeth Calvert who may have found her inspiration for her illustrations in the cypress tress that adorn the banks of Lake Washington approximately twenty-five miles south of her hometown.

Aggiungi al carrelloPostcard with painting of Rialto Bridge by Canaletto. Postmarked 1970. Ruckled with damp but entirely legible. An amusing communication, beginning 'Thought I would let you know that we were not involved in the great tornado that sunk a voporetto [sic] on Lirica 4, and that the Hotel alla Fava is still very comfortable.' Refers t…o the Lambs' 'self-contained eyrie' and 'the weak fast coffee which tastes of mud; but clearly and obviously isn't'. Asks why 'that in some ways great and good man Ruskin should have blamed Canaletto for "his culpable lack of detail"?' Ends 'Much learning doth make thee mad.' Scan on application.
