Rasputin, Signed by Prince Felix Youssoupoff, 1927, First edition/1st. Very good internally, no underlings. Bound in Burgundy coloured leather by Lewes Bookbinders. Signed by Prince Felix Youssoupoff in Paris 1931.

This book was previously owned by the diarist Joan Wyndham and her husband Alexander Shivarg. Alexander Shivarg was a Russian emigre.

Shivarg was a friend of theatre impresario Henry Brett and Brett worked with Youssoupoff when he was a set designer. It is believed this is how Shivarg came by the book. I have a picture of Brett with Youssoupoff taken in England which was given to me by one of the Shivarg family. This item is in the category "Books, Comics & Magazines\Antiquarian & Collectable".
