An about Very Good copy (spine nearly perished, covers with some tears, modest soiling) with the leaves in surprisingly good condition and in the Publisher's original stiff printed color wrappers.  SIGNED BY CODY on the recto of the last leaf as follows:  W. F. Cody / "Buffalo Bill".  The book was issued to accompany the famous Wild West Shows presented by the great soldier, bison hunter, and showman.  Given the ephemeral nature of this publication, few will have survived.  Copies of the publication itself are quite scarce, and books signed by Cody are quite scarce as well.  Signed copies of this publication, which itself was a component of the great Wild West Shows, SIGNED BY BUFFALO BILL, ARE RARE INDEED.

A Fine copy, SIGNED BY JOHN IRVING on a tipped-in page (as was done by the publisher).  The First Edition, preceding the trade edition and with an introduction by John Irving not contained in the trade edition.  Publisher's inserts loosely laid in (a little edge wear to the laid in card).  One of Irving's most-loved titles, the story of two boys, John Wheelwright and Owen Meany, growing up together.  One of  the boys(Owen) believes himself to be an instrument of God.  The story of his captivating hold on, and influence of, others is told through the mature John Wheelwright.   "Simon Birch" the 1998 starring Ian Michael Smith, Joseph Mazzello, Ashley Judd, Oliver Platt and Jim Carrey, was loosely based on the novel, but differs quite a bit from it.  In fact, Irving requested the the novels title not be used for the movie as he believed it would mislead the book's public, drawing them to see a movie that varied greatly from the book.  A Fine copy of a Fine novel, SIGNED BY JOHN IRVING.
