VERNON, Dai (David Verner, 1894 - 1992). Revelations. Pasadena, 1984. Publisher's cloth with jacket. Illustrated. Oblong 4to. Jacket worn; good condition. In a handsome drop spine box in 1/3 black leather over black silk, ruled and lettered gilt. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED on the second free endpaper, ?To a very dear friend Larry Jennings, an absolute master of the pasteboards and a man who really understands how to perform bewildering effects. Admirably, Dai Vernon."A unique association copy and not only due to the inscription (Jennings was one of Vernon's proteges and perhaps one of his two best students), but also due to the fact that though this is not the deluxe numbered edition of this publication, the half-title bears a stamped numeral ?00001" with Jennings' name written underneath it, possibly in Vernon's hand. A photograph of Vernon, taken by Frank Simon and included in deluxe editions of this book, has been tipped on to the verso of this page.
