Authorized Images: Famous Authors Seen Through Antique and Vintage Postcards

They did not give public readings of their work or appear in bookshops signing autographed copies of their wares. These low profiles were reflected in the number of postcards of them available for sale. Cards Those which could be purchased during the Golden Age of Postcards are well illustrated in this volume.
