About This Item
N.V. EM. Querido's Uitgevers-MIJ, 1934. 1st Edition. Hardcover. VG/VG+. 1st Edition. 11 x 19cm black titled buff paper covered boards over teal cloth spine with black titles, 253pp. Original dust jacket designed by Eppo Doeve. The boards are a little toned around the edges and some spotting both front and back. Internally, there is a small bookseller's sticker to the bottom corner of the front pastedown but no name, inscription or bookplate. The pages are all quite spotted throughout, as are the edges of the text block. The dust jacket though, is very good. It has very minor loss to the fore edge corners and lower spine corners, a little loss and chipping at the spine head and a tiny closed tear in the centre of the spine foot tip. The rear panel is dust marked and lightly soiled (see image) but the front panel remains colourful and vibrant with a few tiny spots around the title and dust marking at the top edge. Over all, a very presentable copy of this scarce book of short stories, which has given rise to the discussion of the sharing and collaboration of stories between de Neve and Jean Rhys. Rainford & Parris Books welcomes enquiries, so please do not hesitate to ask if you require further images or have any questions. All books are packaged with great care.
