Ronald Searle in Perspective is a 1984 retrospective collection of the cartoonist's work. The British public, apparently, was offered a deluxe limited edition, slipcased and bound in black leather with gilt lettering. If you were an American, you probably didn't hear about it. The book was signed and included an original Searle lithograph, An Angel Passed..., in an edition of 250.
