Extremely scarce pre publication proof in the original red wraps with Collins proof label and reviewer’s number handwritten on the front. Attached the International Press Agency ( Cape Town) distribution labels- a documented but very uncommon export path for early 1960 Christie proofs. Only a small number of these were circulated to overseas press outlets, and survival rates are exceptional low. Original red wraps, Collins proof label,INPRA label intact, minimal age related wear to wraps, spine and covers. A strong well preserved example of a fragile proof format. Very RARE proof copy.
The gilding is near perfect! The covers look near perfect as well. The exception to this is book 2 has a few light spots on the cover and book 3 shows a little leather rub. This beautiful set is adorned with gold gilded page edges and a sewn-in silk marker in each book.
All three books are first editions published by Titan Books and are in very nice pre-owned condition. Covers, spines, and pages show minimal wear from handling and storage. The Burning Man.
