Description: To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee Fourth printing, signed by the author Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott and Company, 1960. First edition, fourth printing stated. Signed by Harper Lee and inscribed to a former owner, dated in the year of publication, "To Michael Bailey with my best wishes, Harper Lee. September 14, 1960." Bookstore label from a Dothan, Alabama bookshop to front pastedown; Anecdotally, Lee embarked on one brief promotional tour for the book in her home state of Alabama, that was to include stops in Mobile, Dothan, Montgomery, and Birmingham, but reportedly her shyness and reluctance to interact with others resulted in her abandoning the tour and returning home. A few inscribed copies are known from the Birmingham and Dothan stops, and a newspaper article covered her appearance in Mobile. Bound in publisher's brown paper boards over green spine cloth lettered in brown. Very Good with spine cocked, thin line to top and bottom edges of covers and endsheets from an old-style asphaultic edged dust jacket, tape ghosts to both endsheets. In a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket with is rather bright. The jacket is stated sixth printing on the front flap--it was not unknown for the publisher to ship copies of early editions of this title with slightly mismatched jackets from other editions. The author's first novel, winner of the 1961 Pulitzer Prize for fiction. An interesting copy, from a little known and seldom (if not never) to be replicated signing tour.
