About This Item
Boston, MA: Gambit Incorporated. Very Good. 1970. Hardcover in dust jacket. This book is hard-bound in black cloth, with a gray cloth spine, with gilt stamping to the upper cover and with slightly faded gilt stamping on the spine, in a dust jacket with some light soiling/toning and light edge-wear. The covers show some light rubbing to the corners and spine-ends. The binding is solid. The contents are bright and clean, with illustrations. This book is signed/inscribed by John Kenneth Galbraith on the front free end-page, and signed/inscribed by David Levine, on the half title-page, with an original drawing of a personified fountain pen. - 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. .
