6 Matthiessen, Peter Raditzer
NY Viking Press 1961 First Edition Hard Cover Signed by Author
Near fine in a very good dust jacket. The book has minor soiling to the white cloth at spine ends, and a faint erasure on front endpaper. The jacket has a little rubbing on the front flap fold, tiny chips at spine ends, and a little creasing and wear mainly at spine ends. An important association copy of this novel, inscribed by the author on the front endpaper: "For Marshall -/Who liked a good deal/of this, and understood/the rest. With many thanks/Peter/Jan. 3, 1961". Marshall Best was an editor at Viking in the late 1950's through the 1970's, ultimately becoming Viking's chairman. He undoubtedly worked with Matthiessen on this novel, as well as earlier novels Matthiessen did for Viking. The date of the inscription is very early for this book, as the official publication date was January 26, 1961
