George H. Doran Company, New York, 1922. First Edition. Hardcover. Good+/Poor. The volume is bumped on the spine ends and corners, edge worn with exposures on the bottom corners and top edges, and perimeter toned. The endpapers have some offsetting; there is a stain om the front pastedown, a vertical crease on the front endpaper, and a crease on the bottom corner of the rear endpaper. The dust jacket is chipped and creased on the edges, has a lengthly (about 4") horizontal tear on the front panel, is split in two at the rear joint, and is missing about half of the spine. Much of what remains of the sunned jacket spine was in pieces and is now held together by many small pieces of tape on the verso. The jacket is now protected in clear plastic.

About Trilby & Co. Books

Trilby & Co. Books is located in Northern California. The company was founded years ago by a Shetland Sheepdog named Trilby. Trilby's message to her family was brief and direct - the sale of books would increase disposable income and improve the quality of provisions in her food dish. My name is McTavish (picture above). I am the current CEO of this company, and I approve of her message. Oh, by the way, my speciality is literature, with an emphasis on first editions and signed books.
