About This Item
London: Faber and Faber, 1934. UNCORRECTED PROOF, preceding the first UK edition.
While the UK edition of Stout's book is itself a rarity, this proof likely the only surviving copy. Found in the author's attic after his death.
Very Good in brown wrappers, title label on the spine. Square and tight with a few creases to the spine panel. Housed in a custom quarter-leather clamshell box.
