Title: Hell's Angels - With original sketch by Ralph Steadman Author: Thompson, Hunter S. Place: London Publisher: Allen Lane Date: 1967 Description: 281 pp. (8vo) gray and black cloth, Hell's Angels' logo in silver on front cover, dust jacket. Custom slipcase. First English Edition. Inscribed in red marker on the title page, with a sketch, by the illustrator of many of Thompson's works (but not this title) Ralph Steadman. Steadman humorously inscribes as "Ralph Sonny Barger Steadman" above a sketch of a man riding a motorcycle, clearly a caricature of Thompson complete with his trademark cigarette in holder. The inscription dated August 20th, 2005 at Thompson's Woody Creek Owl Farm in Aspen, Colorado, the date corresponding with the launching of Thompson's ashes into the night sky above his homestead. Lot Amendments Condition: Jacket rubbed and with some edge wear, amateur paper repairs on rear of jacket; small bump to top edge of rear cover; near fine in a very good jacket. Item number: 212312
