Eyre and Spottiswoode, 1948. Hardcover. Very Good. A first edition, first printing published by Eyre and Spottiswoode in 1948. A very good book without dust wrapper. Some off-setting to the rear board. Bumping to the corners and darkening to the page edges. Comes complete with a signed letter from Douglas Jerrold, head of Eyre and Spottiswoode [and Graham Greene's boss], to George Orwell. The letter reads: 'Dear George Orwell, I am sending with this letter Brian Lunn's autobiography which we are publishing on the 27th August. It is rather an unusual book and why, I think, amuse you as well as interest you. Yours Sincerely, Douglas Jerrold (signed). Complete with Orwell's address on official Eyre and Spottiswoode paper. This may have been Orwell's own copy.
