LAND FAY GODWIN/JOHN FOWLES Heinemann. HB. 1st. DOUBLE SIGNED NEWithMint
Brilliant copy, overstock from closed Inde bookshop. The cover is well known to be horrifically light sensitive & fades to green extremely quickly. This is a mint copy with faint scratches on the cover from movement, unowned, from a box direct from the publisher. From John’s local bookshop which closed in 2010. It is not the limited edition which were mostly signed singly by Fay Godwin. A very special acquisition, especially for the new collector of either Fay. Or John’s work. NB Pale patch on photo 4 is unfortunately the sunlight NB see also the limited availability of the paperback edition. No “maybes” or “may not contains”, well packed for protection & never sent naked in plastic bags only suitable for newspapers. More than 2kgs doubles the costs & courier is preferable.
