About this Item

First edition, first printing. LIMITED SIGNED EDITION. Bearing the publisher's authorized tipped-in page SIGNED by the author. Uncommonly, supported here by the addition of the original QR coded launch event e-ticket - thus providing provenance. The UK launch event was held at Waterstones, Piccadilly, on the evening of March 4th 2020. Entry was strictly limited by ticketed entry only (costing £28 per person). This entitled the bearer to acquire their single copy on the night - hence, the book in question. A perfect, carefully chosen example, superbly Very Fine copy throughout in dust-wrapper; thankfully, not marred (as many are) by the presence of a bookstore sticker. A superior example indeed. We are also including here the two, related items of promotional ephemera that make for completion: namely, the relatively scarce postcard and matching bookmark. To set this fine book off, we have chosen to include here an additional book, free of charge, which we feel makes an apt inclusion: Simon Armitage's "Queenhood", published by Faber & Faber in 2022 as a SIGNED LIMITED EDITION. Issued by the Poet Laureate to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee 2022, "Queenhood" is an attractively produced chapbook poem in stapled wrappers, as issued. As New. So, two books in total. Offered by D B WATERS RARE BOOKS: Professional, full-time booksellers of fine, select 1st editions, established in 1998. As befits a rare book, all dust-wrappers are housed within transparent, removable protectors. All our stock is fully guaranteed as authentic, a sample of which is presented here on this website. As long-established specialist sellers, we never stock any first edition that is devalued by serious flaws such as price-clipping, dedications, remainder dots, or owner markings, etc. A small, boutique business with an enviable client base.
