Signed book: Norman Rockwell: Artist and Illustrator. Limited edition of 1,100 signed copies (this an “artist’s proof” copy numbered “AP D/8”). NY: Harry N. Abrams, 1970. Blue-leather-bound hardcover in marbled slipcase, 12.5 x 17.25, unpaginated. Signed in blue ink on the limitation page by Rockwell and the book’s author, Thomas S. Buechner. Light wear to slipcase, a very subtle trace of rubbing at corners, and faint vertical marginal creases to a few pages due to presence of adjacent fold-out illustrations, otherwise very fine, clean, fresh condition. Without doubt one of the most handsome Rockwell volumes ever produced! R&R COA.
