Thank you for taking such care with the packaging and preservation.Just as described. I was Walter's Assistant Art Director in the mid 1970's. He was an amazing mentor and incredible human being. I was thrilled to discover your offering. It has truly touched my heart.

Book was a little late in arriving but I'm not complaining because it was a lovely copy and there are still Covid problems with our post. It was just as described. Superbly packaged with much care taken to protect the book. Thank you.
