First American edition. Original hessian cloth blocked in red in grey dustwrapper printed in red and green. With author's presentation slip, tipped into the front endpaper, reading, "For H.A.Rappaport Evelyn Waugh". A fine copy in a very nearly fine dustwrapper, with just a hint of tanning to the spine and wear to the corners.
H.A.Rappaport was an eccentric American bibliophile, who had a habit of hand printing or binding offprints of his favourite author's works and sending them to the authors in exchange for presentation copies of signed photos.
