About This Item
this most unusual book, described as a Silent Film, describes the history of a central Asian city called Gulb (or Blug) and the excavation led by Prof. Horace Bedsock, an eminent American archeologist, and financed by his friend , Maximilian Gloat, and discovery of a ritual object. It's all imaginary, of course, and very funny.
This first edition has black wrapper and was originally a limted edition of 100 numbered copies signed by author; this copy is unnumbered and unsigned.
Condition: very good. Pages are clean and unmarked. Black wrapper is slightly bent at top, otherwise fine.
Synopsis
