Description

Pristine first edition of Skywriting by Word of Mouth

Signed book: Skywriting by Word of Mouth. Limited first edition, numbered 77/500. NY: Harper & Row Publishers, 1986. Hardcover with slipcase, 5.25 x 8.5, 200 pages. Signed on the colophon in black ink, “Yoko.” In very fine condition.

Written during Ono’s pregnancy with Sean, Skywriting by Word of Mouth was delayed and nearly lost following Lennon's assassination and the theft of their family home in 1982. The work’s eventual recovery and publication was met with immediate acclaim, with fans and critics alike praising Lennon's creative flair and trademark sketches. A wondrous and sought-after book. Pre-certified REAL.
