"Lady Chatterley's Lover" by D. H. Lawrence. Signed by the author on a limitation page from a Signed Limited Edition and affixed professionally by a bookbinder. This edition is likely pirated, printed shortly after the first edition and is nearly identical in format to the true first. Without the copyright notice of Tipografia Giuntina at the bottom of the copyright page and "Privately Printed, Florence, 1928" on the title page. From Wikipedia: "The first edition was printed privately in Florence, Italy, with assistance from Pino Orioli; an unexpurgated edition could not be published openly in the United Kingdom until 1960. (A private edition was issued by Inky Stephensen's Mandrake Press in 1929.) The book soon became notorious for its story of the physical (and emotional) relationship between a working-class man and an upper-class woman, its explicit descriptions of sex, and its use of then-unprintable words." Measuring 9 ¼ inches tall, the book has been rebound in beautiful deckled paper and ¾ red leather with raised bands, gilt rules, gilt fleur de lis, gilt title/author lettering on spine and deckled pastedowns and end papers. Structurally and appearance wise, it is in very good condition. With black and red text to title page, interior contents are in very good + condition, all pages present, all bright with no errant marks or names. Top corners of most pages show light creasing. Page ends show some age soiling largely to top and rough cut fore edges. Top page ends also show a short thin streak of soiling and a couple of extremely faded very small damp stains near crown.

8vo. Brown half morocco, pebbled cloth boards, top edges gilt, others untrimmed. First edition, number 670 of 1000 copies signed by the author. "Mr. Lawrence has moments of greatness, of course, but hours of something very different" - Virginia Woolf ('The Common Reader'). "Lawrence fully intended to shock and expected his book to be banned. The time-bomb only recently exploded when the issue of the trial ended censorship in England. Even without the eroticism it is a fascinating and well-planned novel rich in post-war observations and character portrait" (Connolly, The Modern Movement, 57). Roberts A42a. A fine copy
