The New Yorker Magazine, July 14 1945, the complete issue in beautiful shape. Constantin Alajalov did the cover. The pages are crisp and clean, without a hint of foxing or any other staining, no writing, no creases, nothing missing, tight to the staples.
Exceptionally rare proof copy of Agatha Christie’s Poems ( 1973 ) issued by Collins before publication.Stamped by the International Press Agency, confirming authentic review copy provenance. Front wrap has the original Collins proof label with handwritten control number and reviewer’s name. Clean red wraps with minimal age related wear, proof label intact, handwritten control number and reviewer’s name as issued, text block clean and complete.
Extremely scarce pre publication proof in the original red wraps with Collins proof label and reviewer’s number handwritten on the front. Attached the International Press Agency ( Cape Town) distribution labels- a documented but very uncommon export path for early 1960 Christie proofs. Only a small number of these were circulated to overseas press outlets, and survival rates are exceptional low. Original red wraps, Collins proof label,INPRA label intact, minimal age related wear to wraps, spine and covers. A strong well preserved example of a fragile proof format. Very RARE proof copy.
