John Kennedy Toole. First edition, stated third printing. Foreword by Walker Percy. Both unclipped dust jacket and hardcover are in Very Good+ condition. No writing or markings found in the book, 338 pp. Jacket design by Ed Lindlof.
A strong collectible copy of John Kennedy Toole’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, A Confederacy of Dunces, published by LSU Press in 1980. This is the stated third printing, issued shortly after the acclaimed first edition and becoming increasingly scarce in collectible condition. There were only 2,500 copies printed in the first print run.
Condition
Book: Very Good+. Clean boards, tight binding, no writing or remainder marks.
Dust Jacket: Very Good+. Unclipped with original price present. Colors remain bright and unfaded. A small tear along the jacket crease is the only notable flaw; otherwise remarkably well-preserved.
