[Rarebooks] FS: Signed Limited Thomas Merton

[Charles Agvent]

  MERTON, Thomas. ORIGINAL CHILD BOMB. [New York]: (New Directions), 
(1962). First Edition. One of 500 unnumbered copies SIGNED by the author 
on the colophon page. An uncommon autograph due in part to Merton's 
early and tragic death as well as his monastic life. A notoriously 
fragile book prone to spine wear, this copy is superior to most we have 
handled. The original acetate dustwrapper is no longer present. Minor 
wear and soiling. Much better than usual. Near Fine.         $650.00
