Description: Stewart Brown Specimens Knotting Bedfordshire: Sceptre Press [1979]. First edition. 8vo (5 in x 8 1/4 in). 8 pages. Number 16 of 150 numbered copies. This is one of the first 50 copies that were each signed by the poet. A poem by the English poet, university lecturer, and scholar of African and Caribbean Literature. Near fine in stiff printed wrappers. As seen in the photographs that accompany this listing, there is very light sun-fading to the top 1/2 inch of the front cover, otherwise this is a like-new copy of this limited edition. The pages are center-stapled into the wrappers, and are clean and unmarked. The front and back images of this item were scanned. The remaining images are digital photographs that were taken in natural light with an iPhone 6s. The images have not been retouched or adjusted in any way, other than being cropped. As a long-time bibliophile, I know how important the condition and edition of an item are to a serious collector. In all my listings, I strive to provide complete descriptions that do not neglect to mention any faults, and to provide photographs that illustrate those faults, along with images of the item's exterior and its title and copyright pages to confirm that the edition is as claimed. My goal is NO UNPLEASANT SURPRISES. If you receive an item from me that fails to meet this standard, you may return it for a full refund, and I will pay the return postage. I will carefully pack and ship your purchase in a cardboard wrapper or box to ensure it is not damaged in transit. I have collected first editions of West Indian Literature for over twenty-five years. I am currently in the process of cataloging and listing for sale books from my collection, but that will take some time. Please feel free to email me your specific wants, and I will be happy to provide detailed quotes of available items. [Email: patrick (at) westindiesbooks.com]
