Parker, Chan / Paudras, Francis To Bird WIth Love

Very rare original and only printing of this incredible book on Charlie Parker. This is the best copy I have ever seen! The original owner wrote his name on the outside edge (see 3rd scan) but the book and box are otherwise in like new condition and it even comes in its original shipping box stamped "To Bird With Love". Also included is the New Yorker review of the book when it was issued. Book was over-opened in a few places. An incredible copy of this stunning, profusely illustrated tribute to legendary alto saxophonist, composer and jazz musician extraordinaire, Charlie Parker. This comprehensive work features a phenomenal array of photographs, manuscripts, and ephemera provided and captioned by Chan Parker, Bird's wife at the time of his death.
