Humorous Illustrations of Secondhand Book Dealer Descriptions.

Slightly Foxed - but still desirable. Ronald Searle's wicked world of Book Collecting.

Published by Souvenir Press. 1989. ISBN 0 285 62945 X.       310 x 230 x 10mm (12 x 9 x 3/4 inches) 
Dust Jacket has very slight damage; otherwise, as new.

Entertaining for all - and revelation to any poor innocent who has been baffled, or perhaps lacking full understanding of the book-world idiom and might have felt deceived by the bookselling community descriptions of their stock in trade.

Anyone who appreciates the brilliance of the satirical art of Ronald Searle will not fail to love the turn of phrase in his introduction, and the glossary at the end of the book.
