SIGNED Square Peg, Jeremy Pitt. 1961 1st Edition. Outsider

The first printing of this unusual'view from the sludge' novel (according to one of the several hoax reviews to back flap). The author's first novel about a melancholic, free-spirited life, inscribed by Pitt to'Jonny' and dated 1975. A very good copy, the cloth slightly marked and bumped, the binding tight and square.

Some spots to the fore-edge, endpapers and prelims, but seldom seeping to the text. The excellent dust jacket unclipped, with the corners and tips gently bumped, the rear panel a trifle grubby.
