Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: very good. First edition. First edition. Oversized hardcover in black cloth lettered and decorated in gilt. Illustrated endpapers. 117 pp. Illustrated with over 125 Ronald Searle cartoons. Fine in very good, price clipped dust jacket with minimal wear at the extremities. Since the first humorous "St. Trinian's School" cartoon appeared in 1941 through the conclusion of the comic strip series in 1952, Ronald Searle unleashed the girls of boarding school on the highly entertained public. The place was actually inspired by a real school (St, Trinnean's in Edinburgh) though the sadistic teachers and juvenile deliquent students were products of Searle's offbeat imagination, more the offspring of Hitchcock-like horror tales than of real ladies' boarding school life. In this volume, the whole ghastly story is brilliantly reconstructed by Siriol Hugh-Jones, with songs, music, additional prep, dirge and epitaph from the hands of a scintillating band of contributors.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Ronald Searle (illustrator). First Edition. 125 of Searle's St. Trinian drawings, as well as ephemera-style contributions such as songs, music, and theater playbills from the likes of Robert Graves and Bertolt Brecht. A cult artifact of postwar British satire, St. Trinian's is Ronald Searle's most famous work and served as the inspiration for a popular series of comedy films. The gag comic strip series centers on a boarding school for girls where the teachers are sadists and the students are juvenile delinquents, a concept that grew darker and more political when Searle resumed the project after his experience as a WWII prisoner of war. Book is fine and unmarked, black cloth lettered and decorated in gilt, with illustrated endpapers. Jacket has minor rubbing at corner tips, is price-clipped, and is otherwise fine, clean and bright, and protected by a Brodart cover.
