The Best of Everything by Davis, William - 1981

New York: St Martins Pr, 1981 Solid With Corners And Binding Intact, Light Wear And Child Scribble On Ffep. Dj Is Clipped And Has One Closed Tear To Back Panel. Stated First Edition. The Subtitle, "A Guide To Quality For Those Who Know How To Appreciate It" Is Somewhat Tongue In Cheek, As Might Be Expected Given The Editor Was Editor In Chief At Punch. There Is In Fact As Much Snobbery As Connoisseurship Or Useful Information. Viz. Best Boutonniere (Carnation) Provides The Bonus Information That The Button Hole Should Be One To One And One-Eighths Of An Inch Long, And That Smaller, Faux Or The Absence Of Any Buttonhole Is The Mark Of A Cheap Suit.Illustrated By Lots Of Cartoons From Punch.
