[Charles Agvent]

First Edition. Her first limited edition, this being copy #237 of 750 
SIGNED by Welty as issued in decorated boards. Additionally INSCRIBED on 
the front free endpaper by Welty for William Archibald "with all best 
wishes + admiration" and SIGNED by her on 26 May 1956. Archibald wrote 
the lyrics and book for the Broadway shows CARIB SONG in 1945 and THE 
CRYSTAL HEART in 1960. Welty at the approximate time of the inscription 
in this book still had hopes that Archibald would be interested in 
creating a musical from her novel THE ROBBER BRIDEGROOM, a project that 
never was realized though its origins were as early as 1950. With 
Archibald's bookplate on the front pastedown. A scarce title to find 
inscribed, let alone with an inscription of any importance. Near Fine 
with minor soiling and a bit of wear to the spine label. (#010511)    
     $1,500
