[Signed] [First Edition] A Gallery of Women in two volumes DREISER, Theodore [Used - Very good] [Hardcover]
385.18 CAD
Octavo, 2 volumes, 823pp. Both volumes very good or better with some fading and darkening to the spines. Otherwise a crisp, clean set with sharp corners. Dust jackets both poor and in several parts, with most of the spine missing on Volume I and only the rear panel and flap present on Volume II. Lacks the publisher's slipcase. SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Dreiser on the front free endpaper of Volume I: "Vol 1./For Dorothy/from/T. D./N. Y. Aug 1930." He wrote just his initials, not his whole name, but there is enough writing to indicate that this is definitely Dreiser's handwriting. While "Dorothy" isn't one of the women profiled in the "Gallery," she clearly must have known him personally, and rather well. Copies of the signed limited edition (published the same year) are not uncommon in the marketplace, but this is the only example we were able to find of a signed or inscribed trade edition. Despite regrettable condition of the dust jackets and missing slipcase, a particuarly unique set.

[Signed] [First Edition] Welcome to Hard Times- SIGNED & INSCRIBED FIRST PRINTING WITH SIGNIFICANT ASSOCIATION Doctorow, E.L. [Used - Very good]
591.01 CAD
Very good first printing in good dustwrapper. The book is square and quite tight but with darkening/age toning to the paper stock which is of very poor quality. Creasing to the lower lead corners of the first 10 leaves. Foxing and spots to the prelims and paste downs. Two sections of gouging to the top edge. The dustwrapper is largely present but has been strengthened and repaired by tape. The attraction of this copy is the warm and lengthy contemporary inscription on the front endpaper to a close friend, dated October 1st 1960- 'Albert "Johnny" Johnston, my good friend, who read chapter I when it was a short story and told me to go on from there-with gratitude and affection and confidence in the rightness of his new career- Ed (E.L.) Doctorow.' More photographs available on request. As an enthusiastic collector myself I make every effort to provide a high level of service. Enquiries welcomed. Paypal accepted.
