Up next from our Estate Library sale is a Signed First Edition, First Printing Copy of Fantasy Sketches by Maurice Sendak! The hard to find soft cover book is in very good overall condition. The only thing that stops me from calling this book excellent condition, is some minor shelf wear and some of the pages look to have had a paper clip on them. The book was signed and inscribed by Maurice Sendak, and reads ” For Ruthe Rutherford, Maurice Sendak”. The book was published by Philip H. Rosenbach Foundation in Philadelphia in 1970. Please take a good look at the photos, as they are also part of the description.
