Unpaginated. Spine faded, and as with many of the cloth books kept by the poet who inherited his Father's copies of his own books a bit musty. Still an important and interesting inscription. The poet dedicated the book to himself, so this is as close to a dedication copy as one can get. Musty else about very good. Bertholf A39.

He is, also, a well-respected music critic. These were distributed primarily to the book trade, and are somewhat scarce. This is in fine condition, still shrink-wrapped. A nice piece of marketing: the book business being as it is may never again see the likes of the selling materials produced in the late 80's and 90's.
