You are bidding on a first edition of Sweet Life by Ed Van der Elsken, published by Abrams in 1965. 4to, unpaginated, original black cloth stamped in white. One of the all time great photography books, a collection of photographs taken on a trip around the world by Van der Elsken and his wife. PLEASE READ: This is a defective copy. Text block is badly cracked in several places and sectioned. SEVERAL PAGES OF PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MISSING. The book does also have some library stamps to endpapers. This copy is being sold for the jacket only, which is in VG condition. There is a short tear to lower front flap, with some soiling to panels, some wrinkling and creasing, small chips to spine tips, small chafe mark to lower spine, but lettering bright and unfaded, overall this is a nice example of the jacket which has retained its gloss. Jacketed copies of this title sell for hundreds of dollars. SOLD AS IS and not subject to return. Please email any questions and thanks for looking!
