Description
SIGNED, INSCRIBED & DATED IN 1980 first printing of the first William Heinemann British edition. This copy inscribed to his long-time travel agent. Exceedingly rare and collectible, this is a one-of-a-kind signed copy of this novel, the ONLY copy where Wilbur included a date when he signed. And, what's more, the date is 1980, the year of publication. I have been collecting Wilbur for 25+ years now and have never seen another dated copy, not even the copy he gave to his own Mom, which I also own. June is likely the month of first publication. Former owner ink stamp to top of title-page has been marked-out
