Bang the Drum Slowly by Mark Harris (Easton Press Signed Limited Edition)

A striking signed edition of Bang the Drum Slowly by Mark Harris—a deeply human novel set within the world of baseball, exploring friendship, mortality, and quiet dignity. This Easton Press leather-bound edition is elegantly produced in rich red leather with ornate gilt tooling, embodying the publisher’s signature craftsmanship.

This copy is personally signed by Mark Harris, with the printed limitation page confirming its place within a numbered signed series. As part of Easton Press’s Signed Modern Classics line, it is not a later reproduction but a true collector-issued edition, built with archival-quality materials and a sewn binding designed for longevity.

The book is in Fine to Very Fine condition, with a tight, likely unread binding (collector-grade, “virgin” spine), clean interior pages, and minimal to no visible wear—consistent with the high standard of the previous examples. A beautifully preserved copy that presents exceptionally well.

A quietly powerful novel that has resonated for decades, Bang the Drum Slowly stands as one of the most moving works in American sports literature. This signed Easton Press edition offers a refined and lasting way to own it.
