About This Item
Book is becoming scarce with the dust jacket which is very worn with tears at spine edges and corners and has a scrape on the backside. Hardcover book looks nice but has bent edges on the spine ends. Top pages dyed red. Previous owners stamp inside cover mostly covered by the flap which has 2095 at the top. There is a crinkle in the paper mostly at the bottom. No signs of water damage or foxing, smells fine. Owner's stamp also on the title page. Revised edition. Last printing date 1935. Dust jacket states over 1200 pages but there are 1178. Book is complete, hinges are fine. Some soiling along the bottom inside of book from dust. Several page tips creased. May require additional postage for international shipping only. Four complete novels with twenty-one complete shorter works and a biblioliographic summary by Alfred Bigelow Paine of Mark Twain's life and works. A very nice vintage Anthology of Mark Twain's work all in one volume.
