A Mercurial Bear - A Dogear Wryde Paper Pastime Autographed By Edward Gorey in Custom Double Glazed Window Box Case

Descripción

First edition (Toledano A87), AUTOGRAPHED "Dogear Wryde" by Edward Gorey in typical fashion with a crossing out of Dogear Wryde and signed in black ink directly above. The previous owner had a custom made case (a double sided, hinged window box where both front and back covers can be viewed through the glass, antiqued gold frame, burgundy and white ruled matting). Only presents the faintest touch of sunning, confined to the extremities and barely discernable. Extremely faint evidence of a dampstain about 5 mm or 1/8" on top edge of front cover (hard to see, as the last letter of the author's name "ward" obscures the defect), and then less and less evident on a few subsequent pages. Perhaps a hint of rubbing on the back cover? Again the defects are so very minor, they are mentioned only to be completely frank about any possible condition issues. Most certainly a highly desirable collector and investment copy. N° de ref. del artículo 095695
