About This Item
Bostson: The Atlantic Monthly Press, 1923. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Very Good cloth first edition with gilt lettering on cover and spine SIGNED by Lord Charnwood at end of preface. The signature appears beneath a glued in image of Charnwood opposite the table of contents. Rather unorthodox, but there you go. The gilt lettering on the spine is quite faded but still legible. 1/2 inch light colored scuffing to top left edge of spine and back cover. There is also a glued in newspaper clipping in the front endpaper with corresponding discoloration of opposing front free end paper. Blue pencil markings of former owner in front endpapers and occassionally as underlinings and parentheses throughout the text (always in blue pencil). Binding is straight and tight. No other creases or tears. Index. 232 pages.
