Description
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. Player Piano. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1952. First edition. Delightfully inscribed and signed by the author to Jack Cordes, "Warmest possible greetings / to Jack Cordes, who this / day, God love him, asked me / to autograph a book which, / unloved, went out of print / thirteen years ago / Kurt Vonnegut Jr. / Iowa City / Sept. 29, 1966" on the front free endpaper. Octavo. [viii], 295 pages. Publisher's green cloth with silver spine titles. Original pictorial dust jacket. Minor wear to board edges. Light soiling, bumping and fading to spine cloth. Corners bumped and rubbed. Dust jacket spine sunned. Overall, the price-clipped jacket is a bit tired, with some biopredation to the rear panel and spine tail, resulting in some loss. Minor loss to spine head and other fold ends. A nice copy, with a wonderful inscription. From the collection of first fan, Jack Cordes.Auction Info
