A rare little pamphlet. Sarayon's acerbic attack on modern first edition collectors as 'one of the awfullest tribes that inhabits the world. They are lower than thieves, more fiendish than murderers… They wait till the writer dies, or is murdered by his age and then they fall upon his books like hyenas.'
