Like a Lover [#126/200 Copies - Inscribed by Author w/ 2 Notes]

(Literature) WESCOTT, Glenway

Villefranche-sur-Mer: Monroe Wheeler, 1926. Original wraps. 5 1/4 X 8 Inches. 35 PP. Fair. Item #9581

#126 of only 200 copies published by Monroe Wheeler at the outset of his personal lifelong love affair with Wescott. This copy not signed on limitation page, but rather inscribed to his friends on the first page. Signed, "For my friends / Michael and Bill / Glenway." Also includes two handwritten notes from Glenway Wescott that accompanied the gift. The original paper booklet quite worn at spine with some stain marks at edges. Housed in aged glassine wrap that we assume was applied at a later date. Original tie-binding shaken. PO name and telephone number in ink on last page. While condition is found wanting, this booklet quite important to collectors of the American expatriate movement in the Paris of the 1920's.

Price: $125.00
