Printing Details

First edition, first impression. Hardback in dustwrapper. 22 × 14cm, 159pp.

Signed and dedicated by Anthony Blond to the title page "For Sweet Wm from Anthony"

Anthony Blond's witty, behind-the-scenes insider study of the mid-20th-century book trade. Blond, a famously flamboyant and independent "maverick" British publisher, wrote the book as a lively primer on how the industry actually functioned just as it was starting to transition into corporate conglomeration.

Condition

The book is in very good condition, with a little tanning to the page edges. The wrapper has light wear to the edges and a small closed tear to the rear panel but is otherwise good.
