Description: All The Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy. Advanced proof in publisher’s cardstock folding box, signed by McCarthy on first blank end page. Fine book without the rather common corner crimp, appears unread! Box VG+ with soiling to flap and light wear. A one inch closed tear present on box hinge. Still very strong integrity however. One of the nicer copies I’ve seen. Quite scarce!! . First book of McCarthy’s iconic Border Trilogy. There are said to be around 200 of these signed proof copies in existence. According to sources he was sent 400 to sign and went Cormac on them and stopped after 200! Classic Cormac. The reclusive author does not sign books all that often, so having a genuine signature on the first commercially successful novel he wrote, the first in the trilogy, the first book he won a major award for, is a smart investment… 🔥 . “Long before morning I knew that what I was seeking to discover was a thing I’d always known. That all courage was a form of constancy. That it is always himself that the coward abandoned first. After this all other betrayals come easily.” .
