Item description from seller

First Edition (first printing). This copy signed by John Betjeman on the front free endpaper, seemingly using his non-dominant hand. 4to. 163pp. Decorated cloth. Illustrated with over 170 photographs including one colour plate and a two-colour folding map. A touch of bruising to the backstrip ends, and a vertical crease to the map where is has been carelessly folded. A very good copy in price-clipped dust wrapper designed by John Piper, with several short closed tears and a touch of edgewear. The second volume in Murray's Architectural Guide series, and the last edited by Betjeman and Piper. This example nicely enhanced by Betjeman's unaccountably southpaw signature.
