About This Item
NY: Simon & Schuster, 1954. Book Club Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine in VG+ dust jacket. A well kept copy for 60+ years. A near pristine copy with very minor wear -- black boards, clean and tightly bound; top edge of text block tinted yellow, as published, unblemished; unmarked, pages clean with age toning (lower grade paper used in production). Dust jacket illustrated by H. Lawrence Hoffman, light shows edge wear, spine a bit sunned, light crease to rear panel, clean and now protected in a clear archival cover. An excellent copy in the hardcover book club edition for the choosy reader/collector (or as a gift).
