[Rarebooks] FS: Long (24") Galleys for Cheever's Final Wapshot Novel

[Charles Agvent]

CHEEVER, John. THE WAPSHOT SCANDAL. New York: Harper & Row, 3 January 
1964. First Edition. Uncorrected Proof consisting of long galleys (24" x 
6-3/4") bound in stiff plain wraps with a brown binder's tape on the 
spine. Pasted to the first page is the publisher's slip giving 
information about the book including a "probable publication date" of 3 
January 1964. The second and final of the Wapshot novels, the first 
having won a National Book Award. A very scarce format for this title. 
Obviously very few of these over- and odd-sized advance copies were 
made. The only other copy we could locate had been bastardized by being 
cut up so that the size would be more like a typical book. Laid in 
loosely are two circular (diameter of 6-1/4") original watercolor 
apparent title labels for this copy. Near Fine. (#018980)        $1,000.00
