McCOURT, Frank. ANGELA'S ASHES. n.p., 1996. First Edition. A broadside 
excerpt (12" x 18") from the moving Pulitzer Prize-winning autobiography

Avenue Books and First Choice Books on the occasion of an appearance by 
McCourt in an edition of 250 copies SIGNED by the author and illustrated 
with a color woodcut by designer Julie Freeman. This copy is not 
numbered, and though there is no indication of such, it was given by 
McCourt to a friend. "Worse than the ordinary miserable chidlhood is the 
miserable Irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic 
childhood." Very light soiling to upper left corner, still Fine.
