Extremely Rare Lewis Emphemera  (Those bits of throwaway paper of every day life (e.g.: advertising, ticket stubs, programs, some booklets and pamphlets, etc.)

THE TROUBLE WITH X

C.S.Lewis

London: The Church Union Church Literature Association.

This is a most unusual find; I never think of C.S. Lewis in connection with tracts. Pamphlet is in very good condition with only the slightest wear spine at head and heel; there is no creasing or tears to pages or cover. Figure drawings signed by "et" in a monogram. 4pp. Printed at Southend-on-Sea and published at 4d. A sermon first published in The Bristol Gazette in 1948, but not printed or published separately until here and later appeared in God in the Dock. OCLC records no copies in the USA, but short pamphlets like this are often under reported. Not in the bibliography by Christopher and Ostling, surprisingly. Not at Yale apparently. (this info from ILAB)

I have only been able to locate two copies of this small pamphlet; my first copy sold recently and after this one is gone it could be a long time before I am able to get another.

PRICE:$255.00

    Hello - I have a 1955 ed. of the pamphlet (Southend-on-Sea: The Church Union, Church Literature Association, 6 Hyde Park Gate, S.W.7) in very good condition. Is it worth anything? [email protected]
