About This Item
San Diego: Browndeer Press / Harcourt Brace, 1995. Later printing. Hardcover. Fine/near fine. Oblong quarto, unpaginated (about 40pp.), illustrated by E. B. Lewis. A fine copy, very gently bumped at the base, in a near fine dust jacket with some tiny sticker residue on the rear panel. SIGNED and warmly INSCRIBED by the illustrator on the title page, and uncommon thus: "To Clurie: Thank you for inviting me into your Bali, where the knowledge of holiness of all things is common knowledge. May God bless and keep you. Your friend Earl." This is the lengthiest and warmest inscription we were able to find in commerce of this notable African-American artist and illustrator.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
