London: Werner Laurie, 1951
8vo, unpaginated. Original pale blue coarse grain boards, lettered in gilt on black spine labels. Illustrated dust jacket. Offsetting to endpapers, binding just a little shaken, but a very good copy in a very good price-clipped dust jacket with slight wear to spine ends.
First edition.
A collection of clerihews, from the form's creator. Bentley's son Nicolas provides many of the illustrations, as does G.K. Chesterton, Bentley's friend and fellow clerihew enthusiast.
