Warm inscription SIGNED and dated June 29, 1978 by author on half-title. Color photographs of the bunches of grapes show leaves and a portion of the vine (with the back-ground dropped-out to appear like vintage color engravings and which, if I remember correctly, is very similar to the look of a much older book entitled something like California Grapes, which as published was a lot thinner but a slightly taller book). This book's entire text on ivory stock and all type set in a flowing script style. Fine/Fine. Signed by Author.
