Signed book: The New Edition of the Encyclopedia of Jazz by Leonard Feather. Later printing. NY: Bonanza Books, 1962. Hardcover with dustjacket, 8.25 x 10.25, 527 pages. Signed inside in various ink by more than 225 jazz greats, many signing more than once (a few also inscribing), nearly all on or near their respective photo(s). A complete list of the signers follows; a few of the more notable multiples are so noted. In fine condition overall, with wear, tears, and chips to jacket, mild wear to spine ends and tape residue to covers, mild toning and soiling to interior (mainly confined to front and rear blanks), and a few signatures with brushes, smudges, or feathering. An astounding gathering of legends that would be impossible to duplicate! R&R COA.
