Hardcover. Early Edition [1947], unstated. Very Good+ in Very Good DJ: Book shows indications of very careful use: just a touch of wear to extremities; the binding shows very slight lean, but remains perfectly secure; the text is clean, but several pages have been misstruck, resulting in some shadow imaging of some lines of type. The DJ shows light wear to extremities with scant loss at the upper corner tips and a short tear at the lower front corner tips; mild rubbing and some faint soiling to the white background field of the rear panel; the price has not been clipped. A flawed copy, and no longer 'As New', but remains an attractive volume in a lightly worn DJ. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 176pp. Early Edition [1947], unstated. 1937 Shelley Memorial Award Winner. Hardback with DJ.
