About This Item
New York: Harper & Bros., 1958. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Stated first edition on the copyright page with the "C-I" code. Volume is near fine; the jacket's spine is darkened. Edges of front panel area darkened as well. Not price-clipped; the price of $2.95 is present. An interesting feature of this book is that the last few chapters are wrapped in blue paper with the statement: "If you can stop reading here-and not find out how the book ends-return the book, with the seal unbroken, to your bookseller, and he will refund your money." Near fine in very good jacket.
