Lot Essay

This pamphlet reprints an article written by Steinbeck about Positano, which had originally appeared in Harper's Bazaar in May 1953. Goldstone & Payne lists the date of the First English language edition as 1959, this copy is clearly dated 1954 (and would therefore also precede the First Italian edition published in 1955 [Goldstone & Payne A34a]).

[With:] Another edition. Salerno: Ente Provinciale Per Il Turismo, [1959]. 8vo, original stiff printed yellow wrappers. First [Second?] English Language Edition (or possible second issue). Goldstone & Payne A34b.
