LAWRENCE, John. Rabbit & Pork: Rhyming Talk (SIGNED)
Rabbit & Pork: Rhyming Talk. John Lawrence. London: Hamish Hamilton Children’s Books. 1975. Oblong octavo. First edition, first printing. An excellent example signed by the author without dedication at the title page. Beautifully illustrated throughout, considering popular as less known ‘Cockney rhyming slang’ terms and phrases. Illustrated card boards in original dust jacket designed by the author. Endpapers also illustrated. A generally fine copy, the tips and corners just gently bumped and a few light marks to the boards. Jacket clipped with publisher’s price sticker on front flap and clear sticker over that. Jacket with a few areas of rubbing at corners and tips, but again otherwise excellent and scarce signed by the Chiswick artist.
