Description

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1988. Unbound. Fine. Large bifolium, measuring approximately 17½" x 24". "Bookish" in clothbacked papercovered boards, with the cover die-cut to show a reproduction of the photograph by Edward Steichen from the jacket art. Opening the bifolium, one sees a reproduction of the dust jacket art on the recto and a vivid tropical pattern on the verso. Tissue guard with a diagonal crease else fine. The cover states: "In 1970: One Hundred Years of Solitude. Now, 18 years later, a second masterpiece- Gabriel García Márquez's incomparable love story." A striking publisher's advertisement, presumably published in very small numbers. The only example we've seen.
