About This Item
Chicago, Illinois: Chicago Mail Order Company, 1922. First Edition. Original Wraps. Very Good -. Quarto, 11 " tall, [iv] + 298 pages--most printed black and white but some in color, with stiff color illustrated wraps. Various kinds of paper were used and thus the age yellowing ranges from little to moderate. A very good minus, clean, neat original large format softcover catalog overall with moderate shelf wear, minor cover creasing but significant chipping to the back strip along spine; internal binding solid, some pages dog-eared at the corners; paper generally clean with some foxing to the fore-edges and first page, and a damp stain to the bottom margin of the last page and back cover.

Avenue Victor Hugo Books specialize in first editions of the best in fiction, history, biography, poetry, drama, and essay. Our catalogue features careful, considered assessments of all of our stock. We are not flippers selling books by the pound. Instead, we try to limit our stock to books in a condition we'd be proud to place on our personal bookshelves.
For nearly 30 years, Avenue Victor Hugo Books was a fixture of Newbury Street in Boston's Back Bay, at one time holding over a quarter-million magazines and 150,000 used books. Awarded "Best Used Bookstore" multiple times by Boston Magazine, the store was a favorite of Boston-area authors and college students alike.
Since relocating to New Hampshire our shop has been featured on WBGH Boston News, WVCB's "Boston Chronicle," NHPR, and WMUR's "New Hampshire Chronicle."
