About This Item
New York, NY Duell, Sloan, & Pearce, 1944. Hardcover First Edition [1944]; apparently a later printing. Very Good: shows light wear to extremities; mild overall rubbing and the faintest soiling; slightest spine lean; dormer owner's name inked at the front free endpaper. The binding remains secure; the text is clean. Not without flaw, but remains structurally sound and tightly bound: a sturdy presentable copy with a clean text. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. Oblong 64mo. Unpaginated. Illustrated by Mr. Steig with drawings in black & white. Blue Steig caracature illustration at the lower corner of the front panel. Foreward by Wolcott Gibbs. Blue-Grey weaved paper over boards. Blue titles at the backstrip. First Edition [1944]; apparently a later printing. Hardback: Lacks DJ. Steig's inimitable wit and artistic dash have never been sharper or more expertly blended.
