About This Item
New York: Coward McCann, 1940. First Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. The text block is fresh and tight, showing no wear or damage. The front fixed end paper has a black mark, presumably obscuring a former owner's identification. The illustrated covers have light wear and rubs. The dust jacket is also in very good condition. It shows light wear overall, but has shallow chipping at the top and bottom of the spine and clips to all four corners of the flaps. The attached scan gives a better idea of condition.
