Clive Barker – Books of Blood, Volume One
Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London, 1985 hardcover edition in original dust jacket.
Signed and inscribed by Clive Barker with a large original hand-drawn illustration covering much of the front free endpaper.This is substantially more elaborate than a simple signature or small remarque and makes this a particularly striking Barker collectible.
Barker has inscribed the book:
“To Bill Harris, with Very Best Wishes,”
followed by his signature and the large original drawing.
Condition:
Book is approximatelyNF-. Binding is firm and the black boards present well. Interior is clean overall with age-toning to the page edges consistent with the edition.
Dust jacket is approximatelyVG+, with visible edge wear, rubbing and creasing, particularly around the spine ends and corners. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.
There are older pencil notations at the upper margin of the signed endpaper, including a previous price notation. These have intentionally been left untouched rather than attempting to erase or alter the page containing Barker’s inscription and artwork.
