(New York): Ecco, 2010. First printing. Near fine in near fine jacket.. Signed first edition, review copy, of Smith's National Book Award-winning memoir of her intimate friendship with photographer Robert Mapplethorpe — inscribed to the longtime Strand Bookstore rare book room manager Craig Anderson. During the time covered by this acclaimed and best-selling memoir, Smith did all manner of jobs to make ends meet while working to develop her artistic voice. And she found steady work at bookshops, including Scribner's, the Gotham Book Mart, and at The Strand — additionally supplementing her income by scouting rare books. Her relationship with Anderson began in the late 1960s, and her relationship to The Strand in particular was important. It was there she gave a rooftop reading to celebrate the release of her first collection of poems, SEVENTH HEAVEN. An evocative association, tying together to her creative life and the book world of NYC. The first genuine and significant association copy of this finely-crafted portrait of 1970s bohemian New York we've encountered. 9'' x 5.75''. Original publisher's blindstamped purple cloth, silver-lettered spine. Original unclipped ($27.00) photographic dust jacket designed by Allison Saltzman. Photos of Smith and Mapplethorpe in text and at rear. XII, 279, [1], [12] pages. Inscribed by Smith on title page: "March, 2011 / To Craig / Patti Smith." Ecco press release and promotional materials loosely laid in. Spine ends gently nudged, tiny spot of dust-soil to lower edge of textblock. Else bright, clean, and sharp.
