84 Charing Cross Road
Andre Deutsch, 1971.
First UK edition. A very good copy in dustwrapper.
This witty and touching collection of correspondence chronicling the developing friendship between a New York book collector and an English book dealer is a must for any book collector. The all too familiar scenarios cannot help but raise a wry smile "about the Catallus in our catalogue. This was already sold before we received your letter" and "two days after offering you the Shorter English Dictionary... a man came in and bought it when my back was turned."
"The phrase Antiquarian bookseller scares me somewhat, as I equate antique with expensive".
