Maurice Sendak WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE Signed w/ Remarkable Sketch 1963 1st Ed

Description: This is a rare and special edition of Maurice Sendak's classic book "Where the Wild Things Are". The book is a hardcover, first edition, and is signed by the author with a remarkable sketch. It is a collector's edition and comes with 48 pages of illustrations by Sendak himself. The book is in its original form and was printed in 1963 by HarperCollins in the United States. The book is perfect for children's bedtime reading and is suitable for ages 2-12. The book is in English and has topics such as fantasy, magic, and monsters. It is a must-have for any book collector or Maurice Sendak fan. No dust jacket. The rear cover has a few white out marks where the original owner tried to cover up some markings his children did. Other than that, this book is in excellent condition throughout. You probably won’t find another version of this book with such an incredibly detailed remarque by the author. It’s rare to see one of the characters remarqued on most signed copies, but this one has five! Carol, K.W., Douglas, and Bernard the Bull, with none other than Max sitting atop Bernard’s shoulders, dressed in his wolf costume with a crown on his head and scepter in hand! It is truly a remarkable piece that is most likely one of a kind. I have not been able to find another with this much detail anywhere online.
