Larry McMurtry's Copy
RIDING, Laura

Progress of Stories

Majorca and London: Seizin Press/Constable, 1935

Square 8vo, pp. 340. Original green boards, lettered in black to spine. Printed dust jacket. Front board a little bubbled and stained, offsetting to endpapers, a very good copy in a very good price-clipped dust jacket with some tape strengthening to reverse at front fold and spine ends, spine sunned and faded.

First edition of this very scarce collection of short stories, published while Riding and Robert Graves were running the Seizin Press in Deià, Majorca. (Constable was engaged at the last minute as co-publisher: Riding’s corrected proof copy of this book has their name added to the colophon in her hand.)

A well preserved copy from the library of Larry McMurtry, with his stirrup bookplate. The bookplate’s design derives from the stirrup branding iron used by McMurtry’s cattle farmer family.
