Description

Bill W. signs his other “Big Book”

Signed book: Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. Later printing. Alcoholics Anonymous Publishing, Inc., 1953. Hardcover with dustjacket, 5.75 x 8.5, 192 pages. Signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint on the first free end page, “Dear Johnny—With all my gratitude for your recovery—Ever, Bill, NY, May ‘58.” This “other” Big Book, Wilson’s appropriately anonymous follow-up to the historic Alcoholics Anonymous (1939), contains a detailed discussion of the program’s famous twelve steps, as well as the “twelve traditions” that were codified during the group’s formative years. In fine condition, with scattered toning and foxing to inside pasteboards, and some scattered wear and creases to dustjacket and spine. A handsome copy of a title uncommon in signed examples. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
