Clancy, Judith S.

NOT A STATION BUT A PLACE. Introduced by M.F.K. Fisher.

1979 1st San Francisco: Synergistic Press, 1979. First edition, one of 250 numbered copies with a tipped-in leaf signed by Clancy and Fisher. Compilation of drawings and collages portraying the Gare de Lyon, the Paris railway station renowned for its historic architecture and atmosphere. Along with relating her impressions of the station, Fisher alleges in the introduction that through her friendship with Jannet Flanner, Fisher's own abiding appreciation for the Gare de Lyon was communicated to Andre Malraux who, serving at that time as French Minister of culture, subsequently ordered the venerable old station to be delivered from the wrecking ball. Exterior of matching publisher's slipcase a bit spotted and very lightly rubbed; otherwise fine.
