Details
O'BRIEN, Flann (1911-1966). The Dalkey Archive. London: Macgibbon & Kee, 1964.

Proof copy, with many manuscript corrections. This proof was printed in Bristol by the Bristol Typesetting Company. There are frequent corrections to spelling and punctuation, including but not limited to the author's pen name on the front cover ("Flan" instead of "Flann") and the author's legal name on the copyright page ("Nolan" instead of "O'Nolan"). The hand of the corrector may be that of a copy editor, but it is not dissimilar to the author's.

Octavo. Original printed wrappers (front cover detached, corners worn).
