Roald Dahl – The Wonderful World of Henry Sugar – First UK Edition 1987 – INSCRIBED by the Author with a Charming Inscription
£2,500.00
A first edition, first printing published by Cape in 1977. A near fine book with some spotting to the page edges. Inscribed, beautifully, on the front endpaper, “Lucky will/be the (ower) owner/ of This book for/The next 12 months/Love/Roald Dahl/”. In a near fine clipped and repriced by the publisher.
This is one of the few occasions we have encountered an undedicated description of this length by Dahl. The book itself was gifted by Dahl as a school prize.
