Old Father William's Well-Ordered Universe

Old Father William’s Well-Ordered Universe by Bill Richardson
Toronto: HarperCollins, 1991. Flat-signed First Edition.

$20

Trade paperback. Flat-signed by the author on the title page. A charmingly absurd almanac of random facts, this work by CBC personality Bill Richardson offers a delightfully eccentric look at our world and its dubious institutions, and offers satirical insights. Richardson’s wit and love of the arcane are on full display.

This copy is in near fine condition, with a clean, uncreased spine, bright cover, and only minor edgewear. The interior is crisp and unmarked. The signature adds collectible value to a title that is already increasingly scarce in the wild.

A perfect addition for fans of Canadian literary humour, lovers of oddball almanacs, and collectors of signed CanLit.
