Jerzy Peterkiewicz, Inner Circle, London: Macmillan, 1966

pp. 186; 27 full-page line drawings by Souza of which the frontispiece is a colour lithograph and the remaining drawings are tipped-in plates specially printed on beige matt paper; blue leather spine with gilt title and slate grey paper-covered boards without the dustjacket.
9 x 6 in (22.8 x 15.2 cm)

This copy is numbered 92 out of a limited-edition of 100 copies. Limitation written in ink by Souza [92/100]. Signed by both Souza and the author on the title page.

Line illustrations by F N Souza illustrating the Polish poet and novelist Jerzy Peterkiewicz's offbeat futurist narrative.

The frontispiece was hand printed in black ink (there are very noticeable variations between different copies of it) on a standard colour printed London tube map, these maps were probably specially made for Souza as they were not normally available on the type of paper used or with blank versos.
