I’ve just put a copy of the really rather difficult to find biography of the Folk-Rock maestros up onto eBay (use link to right).
It’s the 1997 updated edition in excellent condition with just minor markings to covers. It appears unread.
Also listed are rare copies of The Boot (the official bootleg of the 1983 Cropredy reunion), and The Other Boot (from the 1986 Cropredy reunion).
Apologies for the (Summer) break in transmission.
Normal service is now being resumed (now the Cropredy washing has been completed).
A collection of classical music books is being added to eBay (just follow the link from the bar to your right) over the next few days (there is still some rock and pop material also being added).
We recently came across a rare and interesting copy of Irish Fairy Tales edited with an introduction by W.B. Yeats and illustrated by his brother, Jack B. Yeats.
This was published by T. Fisher Unwin (London and Leipsic) and is an undated 4th impression (it was first published in 1892, and is uncommon in any state).
Some work has been needed to get this into a presentable state. We have had a new spine added (with the original spine re-stuck onto this) and new endpapers have been added making the book look and feel very nice indeed. The work has been professionally undertaken by Teasdale Bookbinders of Corwen.
There is some age-related foxing and spotting throughout the book, but nothing too detrimental to one’s enjoyment of it.
Please contact us for a more in depth description of the book, more photos, or indeed to enquire about the cost.
We have just added the remaining two limited edition Golden Cockerel Press T.E. Lawrence books to eBay.
The auctions will start at 7.30 and 8.00 pm (British Summer Time: GMT+1) tonight, and they have a starting price of only £99.99 each.
These are Shaw-Ede and Men in Print – both limited to 500 copies and bound in 1/4 Morocco. These were published in 1942 and 1940 respectively.
If you wish to discuss these items or would like more photographs or further information, please do not hesitate to contact us – either through eBay or via the contact page here.
Moon Mountain Books were delighted to complete our first four figure sale during this last week!
The sale, to a fellow dealer who specialises in such works, was of the Corvinus Edition of the Diary of T.E. Lawrence, along with the Golden Cockerel edition of Lawrence’s Secret Despatches.
These are the quality of books we are looking to regularly buy and sell. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have such items (in any subject) to sell. We would be delighted to hear from you.
