First Edition of The Broom of the System; Signed by David Foster Wallace and by Dust Jacket Illustrator Lon Kirschner Three Times With an Original Illustration
First edition of the author's first book, which had an initial print run of only 1300 copies. Octavo, original half cloth. Boldly signed by David Foster Wallace on the front free endpaper and with an original illustration by the illustrator Lon Kirschner. Additionally signed by dust jacket illustrator Lon Kirschner three times: on the title page with his initials and an original drawing reminiscent of his jacket illustration, on the front panel of the dust jacket, and on the rear flap of the dust jacket. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Lon Kirschner. Unique.
Published when the author was just twenty-four years old, The Broom of the System stunned critics and marked the emergence of an extraordinary new talent. "Daring, hilarious... a zany picaresque adventure of contemporary America run amok" (The New York Times).
