Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 19th.

First edition (as stated upon copyright page) INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. [8], 278 pages. Hardcover: H 21.75cm x L 14.75cm. Dust jacket toned and soiled; chipping and tears at spine and flap fold ends; front flap retains publisher's printed price at bottom right. Light green cloth with several light brown abraded spots along spine and boards' bottom edges. Light foxing to text block edges. Author's two-line pencil inscription "To the Lyons | A.C. Spectorsky" followed by a bold pencil line on front pastedown and partially hidden underneath dj's front flap. Strong foxing to endpapers; occasional light foxing to interior leaves which otherwise mostly remain clean. Binding is firm. Book is presented in past owner's custom-sized green wood slipcase (by Book Protectors, Inc., Lake Helen, Florida) with top panel slide and maroon folder insert for book; green slipcase is a bit inelegant but certainly quite sturdy with some scuffs/abrasions; slipcase's spine decorated with seven raised bands (one band having surface damage) and three gilt-lettered black leather labels (for title-author-date). Acquired among a small collection of books acquired from a West Point, Mississippi estate which evidently had some connection to author Peter Lyon (1915-1996). Please note that, because of the slipcase, the book has an approximate shipping weight of 3.5 pounds (1.58 kg) and may require additional postage for any postal class other than domestic Media Mail.…
