Contact seller5-star sellerCondition: Very fine copy. 4to, cloth & paper wrappers with original print on verso, real fishing fly on front cover. Very fine copy. First edition. One of only 50 copies printed on Shadwell and signed by the artist. "The cover is six vertical scraps of variegated Shadwell randomly zig-zagged together with the text block sewed t…o one end of the blank side. The cover is then folded under and around the text block with a real fishing fly affixed to the cover. . . . Needless to say this is/was a bibliographer's nightmare about which many letters were received." Hamady 63. Printers' Choice, 68. In our experience, the rarest publication of the Perishable Press.
