About This Item
Boston, MA.: Houghton Mifflin Company. Very Good. 1953. First Edition. Hardback in dust jacket. This book is hard-bound in blue cloth with black stamping on the upper cover and spine, in a nice dust jacket with light scuffing/soiling, and light edge-wear. The covers show light sunning to the edges and spine, and light rubbing to the corners and spine-ends. The binding is solid. The contents are bright and clean. --- From the American First Editions collection of Donald C. Scriven (1948-2019). Don relished points of issue and the primacy of the dust jacket but above all he loved the literature! .
