The publisher's marked galley proofs for pages 1 to 33 and page 62; the original printing plates for the front and rear covers, four illustrated internal pages and three small text plates; an original "The Fat Budgie" Christmas card sent from the UK publisher at Jonathan Cape to the Danish publisher Mr. H. M. Berg, retaining the original mailing envelope. A remarkable collection of material, we believe all extant, relating to the first Danish publication of John Lennon's first book In His Own Write. All items are in very good condition, the original page proofs have several corrections or editorial emendations in blue ink to the margins, the original lead(?) printing plates visually appealing and tactile.
Provenance: H. M. Berg (publisher's archive); Private Danish collection (exhibited during the 1990s in the Danish Beatles Museum).
