About This Item
Modern Library, 1953-01-01. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Signed. Inscribed and SIGNED by Robert Penn Warren on the title page. Even though the copyright page lists 1953 as the copyright, this is a later Modern Library printing because the jacket has an early 1970 ISBN on the rear panel. The volume is near fine with just an ownership signature on the front pastedown (underneath the jacket flap) countering a fine grade. The unclipped dust jacket (price of $2.95 present) has light edge wear.
Synopsis

About Trilby & Co. Books
Trilby & Co. Books is located in Northern California. The company was founded years ago by a Shetland Sheepdog named Trilby. Trilby's message to her family was brief and direct - the sale of books would increase disposable income and improve the quality of provisions in her food dish. My name is McTavish (picture above). I am the current CEO of this company, and I approve of her message. Oh, by the way, my speciality is literature, with an emphasis on first editions and signed books.
