About This Item
New York: A.L. Burt Company, 1923. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good/Near Fine. 8vo., 284pp. Beautiful Uncommon Reprint Edition, bound in light green cloth with gold lettering. Only original 1921 Doubleday publication date listed but c.1923. (ISFDB). Square, tight and clean throughout with minor wear to the spine ends. Gilt lettering on spine starting to fade. No foxing, toning, or off-setting. Very well-preserved. Equally attractive unclipped, though unpriced, dust-jacket has a couple of tiny nicks to the crown and heel. Mild toning to spine and edges but still fresh and bright with no creases or tears and quite scarce in any condition. A very pretty collectable copy and quite scarce in dust-jacket.
