About this copy

An autobiographical account of the author's celebrated one-man show 'The Importance of Being Oscar', based on the life of Oscar Wilde. This copy is in the original green cloth binding with the dust jacket priced 35s net on the front flap. No copyright page was available to confirm printing status, so this is offered without a first edition claim.

The title page carries an inscription and signature reading 'All happiness to dear Kathryn' signed by Micheál Mac Liammóir in ink.

Condition

Book
Good – green cloth boards with black/gilt spine lettering, text block sound and generally clean with some foxing to the top edge.
Dust jacket
Fair – noticeable staining and apparent old tape residue to the lower front panel, toning and wear to the spine and extremities, and a small chip to the top corner.

This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
