Contains chapters on Man Ray, Kisling and Foujita.The original publisher's card slipcase is signed boldly in red crayon by both Hemingway and Kiki; in addition, Kiki has drawn crosses (kisses?) above her name and on the backstrip. Presumably the signatures date from the launch of the book. A later hand, but probably not much later as the ink is fading, and probably belonging to someone who was unaware of the significance of the signatures, has written the publication details of the book below Hemingway's name.Spine darkened. Very good. The original card slipcase is tanned, dusty, rubbed at the edges and a bit marked.
