KALKI
Franklin Cente PA: The Franklin Library 1978. An unusual and scarce copy of Vidal's novel about an ex-American GI a chemical-biological warfare expert during his time in Vietnam who suddenly appears in Nepal claiming to be Kalki a Hindu god on a mission to destroy mankind to make way for a better race of humans. This copy of The Franklin Library's Limited Edition the true first edition first printing is in fact a prototype one of six created during the process leading up the the novel's print run to check the quality of all the elements that go into the production of a full leather bound edition of a best-selling author's novel. According to a "Quality Control Report" laid-in dated 3/29/78 a first print run of 11100 copies was scheduled for completion on 4/13/78. The report is basically a checklist of the status of the various work and parts that go into production of the novel such as paper presswork covers stamping etc. Several needed small improvements are noted; the only major element still incomplete -- gilding still "to come." The prototype itself is bound in full red leather with three raised bands on the spine and with gold-stamped lettering and decoration on the covers and spine and with silk moire end papers. 318 archival-quality pages illustrated by George H. Jones with a sewin-in ribbon bookmark. As noted in the quality control report the text edges are not gilded. This copy shows a touch of scuffing on the covers' bottom edges with some light soiling on the text edges and light foxing on the free end papers. Also a small sticker on the front end paper notes that this is the second of six copies that this is a prototype etc. O/w the book is clean and unmarked tight and square. Certainly collectable for any Vidal completist. First Edition. Full-Leather. Very Good to Near Fine/Issued Without Jacket. Review Copy. The Franklin Library Hardcover

Ease must be maintained yet one may not call him by his first name or walk ahead of him into a room.…Jack was overconscious of his relative youth.…Certainly to me seven years younger Jack seemed—and indeed was—mildly decrepit.
