Cruel Shoes by Steve Martin

FIRST EDITION • FIRST PRINTING [1979] G.P. PUTNAM'S SONS

Rare and long out of print debut from the legend. 

Hardcover with dust jacket in excellent condition.

Dust jacket shows some visible shelf and rub wear; a few light creases.  Otherwise, clean vibrant and in tact.  Now housed in a new archival quality jacket protector.

Book itself looks and reads like new w/ a hint of tanning to pages.

With Cruel Shoes, Steve Martin proves that his humor more than translates to the written page; it excels there. Since he has always written his own material, books are a natural medium for Steve's comic genius. And his extravagant wit shines brightly indeed in this rollicking, heavily illustrated collection of short fabulous pieces.
