OBSLUHOVAL JSAM ANGLICKEHO KRALE VOLS 1 & 2. 1982. A VARIANT ON THE CARBON COPY PUBLICATION – TWO VOLUMES

n.p. (Prague): n.p., 1982

Two volumes, uniformly 21.5 x 15cm, together 301pp (numbered recto only) Xeroxed internal pages. Cloth foil stamped boards professionally bound. B/w photographic portrait of the author as frontispiece. Near fine although the second volume has had some pages slightly misaligned in the binding process but this is a minor flaw and is as published.

This is a famous work by the author which was recently made into a well received film – but is also a variant of a Samizdat book of the same name (previously offered by us and sold) in carbon copy typed version whereas this copy is a Xerox copy of that typed text (it seems) and thus may be regarded as a possible second edition. The original book was written in 1973. Both xerox and cc copies were used by the publishers of such texts.
