THE ROAD TO PARADISE [with] IRISH ENCOUNTERS.

First edition, first printing. Limited edition. Signed by the author. Publisher's original olive green cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the author designed and illustrated dustwrapper. With the cloth bound chapbook 'Irish Encounters', both volumes contained in the original cloth slipcase. With a black and white frontispiece by the author in each. A fine set, the bindings square and tight, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without previous owners' stamps or inscriptions. Complete with the slightly spine-faded dustwrapper that is without loss or tears. Housed in the fine, structurally sound slipcase. Not price-clipped (£37.50 net to the lower front flap).

Issued in a limited 'collector's edition' of 250 copies, this example is numbered 163 and signed by Keith Roberts in brown ink on the limitation page. 750 unsigned trade copies and 26 quarter leather bound copies for private distribution were also issued.
