Item description

MR. RIGHT IS DEAD By Rona Jaffe. New York: Simon and Schuster, (1965). First edition, first printing. "First printing" statement to the copyright page, $4.50 to the jacket's flap. SIGNED to the title page with the salutation "Best Wishes" by the late author of the film adapted book THE BEST OF EVERYTHING starring Joan Crawford, and the film adapted book MAZES AND MONSTERS starring Tom Hanks. Jaffe wrote an influential column for Cosmopolitan with a Sex and the Single Girl slant in the late 1960s. This highly acclaimed collection comprises a short novel featuring Miss Melba Toast exploring a Playgirl lifestyle, and five other 1960s women identity stories. Former owner's address label to the very lightly age-toned inside front cover, intermittent hairline cracks to the rear inner hinge--still holding firmly, else tight and very good in bright purple linen with gilt embossed titles and decorations to the spine; in a very good plus dust jacket with art by John Alcorn, with creases, short tears and tiny nicks to the upper and lower spine ends. NO remainder mark. PLEASE VIEW OUR STORE FOR MORE GREAT SIGNED FICTION BOOKS THANKS!
