About This Item
New York, NY.: Callaway Editions, Inc.. Very Good. 2000. First Edition. Hardcover in dust jacket. This book is hard-bound in color, pictorially printed, paper covered boards, in a nice dust jacket with a scuff to the upper cover. The binding is solid. The contents are bright and clean, with illustrations in black & white and nice bright color. There is a CD in a pocket on the front paste-down. - From the collection of Cuthbert Christian Thambimuttu (1945-2019) of Columbus, Ohio - known to many of his bookseller, author, and illustrator friends as "Tubby." He was persistent in the pursuit of autographed books by the writers and artists he admired, including Gorey, Sendak, Heaney, Byatt, Morrison, Updike and many more. Joseph Heller once wrote to Tubby in response to one more "please sign and return" request: "This is turning out to be a hell of a lot of work!" All signed books unconditionally guaranteed to be authentic. Many of the books are inscribed to both Cuthbert and his great friend of more than two decades Antonia Gale Moss. .
