First Edition. octavo, pictorial heavy paper wrappers. 56pp., stapled. The Colophon Book Shop, Item #26538

Our first catalogue. Most of the sales were to Hamill & Barker in Chicago and Margie Cohn in New York - they were very nice to young booksellers. With original cover design by Richard Cady (also, like us, an ex-employee of H&B). 508 items catalogued. Some nice Bradbury, Capote, softbound advance copy of Farewell, My Lovely, as new - $95.00, unique copy of Maugham's My South Sea Island, Starrett's The Unique Hamlet, Wells' Select Conversations inscribed by Wells to Grant Allen (the person who bought this never paid for it!). Very fine copy.

Price: $7.00
