Signed by Jack Kerouac on the front free endpaper and inscribed ""To Don--- / from / Jack Kerouac / I'm really happy / that you came to the / party Henri threw for me!" Henri was one of Kerouac's oldest friends, Henri Cru, the character Remi Boncoeur in On the Road. Bound in publisher's original black cloth boards lettered in white. Near Fine with splash mark to topstain and pages toned, in a Near Fine unclipped third printing dust jacket with light edge wear, light rubbing and light dimpling to spine. A stunning copy.. The defining work of the Beat Generation. With the exception of one signing event in Denver for his first book, The Town and the City, Kerouac did not to do any promotional signings. And when this book was published, Kerouac was so overwhelmed by the publicity he received that he went into self-imposed exile with his mother. Hence, signed copies in any printing of the legendary Beat author's best-known work are rather scarce.
