Desirable DS, one page both sides, 8.5 x 14, June 17, 1981. Memorandum of agreement between Salinger and Ediciones Grijalbo SA, in which the former grants "to the Publisher the sole and exclusive license to translate, print, publish and sell" the work entitled The Catcher in the Rye "in volume form only in an edition in the Catalan language" for royalties and an advance sum of $500, with an initial printing of approximately 4,000 copies. Signed at the conclusion in black ink by Salinger. In fine condition, with a tear to the top edge and expected document wear. The Catcher in the Rye remains one of the most beloved and best-selling novels of all time, and has sold in excess of 65 million copies since its publication in 1951. Despite its problematic use of slang, the story of Holden Caulfield has been translated into nearly all of the world's major languages. Salinger remains exceedingly rare in document form.
