On Tuesday we will post our new list which contains archives and scarce 
material by three American writers: Thomas Merton, John Steinbeck, and 
Thornton Wilder.  Here's an example:

MERTON,  Thomas.  THE SEVEN STOREY MOUNTAIN. New  York:  Harcourt,
Brace  &  World,  Inc (1966). Later Printing  of  Merton's  monumental
autobiography  SIGNED  by  the  author on the  front  endpaper:  "best
wishes/Thomas  Merton."  Merton  tended to sign as "Father  Louis"  in
most  of  the  trade editions of his books that we have seen,  and  we
have  not  seen  any  copies of this title, his  best  known,  in  any
printing  signed by him. Spine gilt dull but still readable. Near Fine
