An uncommon book in dust jacket, strikingly similar to, and coeval with, Malcolm Lowry's first book Ultramarine (1933). Waterfront was the source book for the British-made Film Noir 'Waterfront' ('Waterfront Women' in the US) which starred Richard Burton.
Inscribed to Irish writer and Director of the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, Conal (O'Riordan) and his wife Olga, dated 8th of January 1934. Very scarce signed.
First edition, first printing, signed presentation copy from the author; 8vo; toning to free endpapers; publisher's cloth, slight rolling to spine, otherwise a very good copy, dust-jacket tanned and rubbed lacking very small pieces at the ends of the spine panel and with slight tanning to same, but overall very good.
