London: Allen & Unwin, 1934. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. Publisher's yellow cloth with black lettering to the front board and spine. A bookseller's ticket to the rear paste-down, slight darkening to the spine and some foxing to the page block edges but still overall a VG copy. In the RARE D/W priced 5s net to the inside flap (as called for). The fair D/W has a slither of loss at the head of the spine (not affecting any lettering) and a larger chip to the bottom 1/2 of the spine removing the publisher's name and crest at the base of the spine. The effect of the chip to the spine has been disguised by laying behind paper of a roughly similar colour. A rare book either in or out of a D/W.
