GUARESCHI, Giovanni. The Little World of Don Camillo. Trans. by Una Vincenzo Troubridge. London: Gollancz. 1951. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s green cloth lettered in black to the spine, in the dust jacket. A very good copy. The boards clean but the four corners gently bumped. The binding tight and square, the textblock edges very gently spotted, the contents largely fine. From the library of Bruce Marshall with his inscription in ink to front endpaper. The dust jacket unclipped with several tiny nicks and mild rubbing to extremities, the spine a touch faded, the rear panel slightly spotted.
The first volume in the author’s acclaimed and best-selling Camillo series about an Italian priest and his various goings-on with his parishioners. Guareschi was an accomplished cartoonist and the book is brought to life with a series of illustrations by him. Uncommon.
