" It is a man's duty to have books. A library is not a luxury, but one of the necessaries of life. "

London: Herbert Jenkins, 1952. [Classic Humour] LEATHER-BOUND FIRST EDITION. Octavo (19 x 13cm), pp.[2] 222 [4]. Recently re-bound in tan half calf, with gilt titles to spine, raised bands, and matching cloth over boards. Toning to edges, with spotting also to edges, and to the first few leaves. Presented in an attractive new leather binding. Love is a powerful spur, and Cyril Fotheringay-Phipps (known to his friends as Barmy) invests his modest fortune in a stage production, encouraged by his admiration for the delectable Miss Dinty Moore. And so he demonstrates that affairs of the heart and high finance may be happily combined. Item #64708
