FEAR TO TREAD

First edition, first printing. Signed by the author. Publisher's original burgundy cloth with black titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A better than very good copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with just the odd isolated foxing spot to the margins, and some toning to the text block edge, are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very good lightly rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that has a couple of short closed tears and is without fading, or loss. Not price-clipped (10/6 on the front flap).

Signed by Michael Gilbert in blue ink on the title page. (Hubin).
