New York: The Viking Press, 1952. The publisher's autographed first edition that was limited to 1500 copies, half of which were for private distribution. SIGNED by John Steinbeck on the colophon page. Housed in the original slipcase. Although some literary critics have called East of Eden a failure in its attempt to retell the Adam & Eve / Cain & Abel story, others consider it to be Steinbeck's masterpiece of his later writing. It was a finalist for the National Book Award for fiction in 1953 and the basis for the 1955 film that introduced James Dean. The book has been well protected by the slipcase and remains in near-fine condition. The slipcase is about very good: clean and solid with some fading; some color-rubbing and the usual wear along the edges of the opening; starting to tear along each of the opening corners (ranging from 1/4" to 1".. SIGNED. First Edition. Hardcover. Collectible-Fine-. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book.

Description:
Amsterdam: Chez Zacharie Chatelain, 1728. Complete in 5 parts (various paginations) with frontispiece and 242 half-page engravings by Henri Cause, many based on those of François Chauveau. There also are attractiveengraved tailpieces following many of the fables. The 5th part of the Fables is not included in many editions; so this more complete edition is quite desirable. Recently and sympathetically rebound in full leather with the original spine and front & rear panels laid down. Internally clean with only an occasional hint of foxing; small chips out of margins of 5 leaves, not affecting text or images. In all, a very nice example of this scarce book, an early, delightfully illustrated French-language presentation of La Fontaine's fables.. Early Printing. Hardcover. Collectible-Very Good. Illus. by Henri Cause. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. Book.
