In the year of the book's publication, illustrator Ralph Steadman personalized a copy of Sigmund Freud (1979), drawing and writing over his printed endpaper painting. The recipient's name isn't apparent on the page, so we'll just have to take the eBay seller's word that this book belonged to Eleanor Hollack, the publisher at Steam Press who worked with Steadman on various projects. The interpretation of the drawing is left to the reader.
Thought bubble: "I could look quite decent if I knew which way round to sit" "God bless you too. Ralph Steadman 27-9-79" |
