Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 2nd Edition. First published by Max Parrish in 1952, this is a second edition of 1976. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, very small closed tear to top front jacket, small tear to top back corner, not price clipped (£2.50), previous owne…r's inscription to front pastedown, internally clean tight and square, jacket still bright lime green and unsunned, overall a vg++ copy. 128pp. Ronald Searle and Dominic Wyndham Lewis take us back to the world of the Gothic Public School in The Terror of St Trinian's. In this gloriously anarchic academy for young ladies we witness shootings, knifings, torture and witchcraft, as well as many maidenly arts. The subject of many evergreen films, St Trinian's is synonymous with the sort of outrageous behaviour that would make a convict blench. Quite a scarce book. Ronald Searle (illustrator).
