About This Item
London: Thornton Butterworth, 1935. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. Original aquamarine-green boards with publishers logo blind-stamped to the bottom right hand corner of the front board. Black lettering to the spine and front board. Slight fading to the spine (caused by ghosting through the D/W), a booksellers ticket on the front paste-down and a front hinge that is starting to weaken. Overall a VG copy. In the VERY RARE D/W priced 7s 6d net to the inside flap (as called for). The D/W has a chip to the top right hand corner of the spine just affecting the lettering and another small chip from the bottom right hand corner of the rear panel. Notoriously scarce, either with or without a D/W, this is one of Elinor Brent-Dyers scarcest books. NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE 1950S REPRINT OR 2006 PAPERBACK RE-ISSUE
