About This Item
New York: Rinehart, 1946. First Edition . Hardcover. Good/Good. Paul Rand. A decent copy with some issues. The rear portion of the book has a moisture stain (appropriately enough.) It affects a 3 inch by 1 inch area of the jacket at the top left, which is missing. Also affected is the related area of the book, it has caused deep rubbing to upper board edge and part of the cover. Surprisingly the rest of the book itself is super bright. Jacket is also chipped at spine ends, the spine titling is sunned. 3.00 price present on jacket flap. IMPORTANT NOTE: about 7 leaves are unopened. Email for pics.
