London: J.M. Dent, 1980

8vo, pp. 176. Original cream boards, lettered in gilt to spine. Photographic dustwrapper. A fine copy in a very good dustwrapper with light edgewear and a scuffed closed 15mm tear to top edge of front panel.

First edition, INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR TO BOB 'BLOCKBUSTERS' HOLNESS: 'for Bob from his OLD chum Kenneth Williams!'.

From 1975 to 1985, Bob Holness co-presented a morning radio show on London's LBC, and over the years amassed a large collection of inscribed copies of books plugged by their authors on the show. This one is an especially pleasing association.
