NELSON, 1934 1934. REAR EDITION. 468 PAGES. VERY REAR DUST JACKET EDITION. THIS FIRST EDITION COPY OF THE BOOK WAS PRINTED WITH A UNIQUE DUST JACKET. THAT IS HARD TO FIND. A DISPUTE BETWEEN THE ARTIST AND NELSON THE PRINTERS CAUSED THE PRINTERS TO DISCONTINUE USE OF THE ARTWORK. A VERY LIMITED AMOUNT OF COPIES WERE ALREADY IN CIRCULATION. THE ONLY OTHER COPIES USING THE SAME DUST JACKET DRAWING IS THE FRENCH EDITION, PRINTED IN THE SAME YEAR. EVEN WITH THE FRENCH EDITION THE GLOBAL COLOR SURROUNDING THE ARTIST WORK WAS OFF WHITE WHERE AS THE ENGLISH EDITION IT IS LIGHT GREEN. THE PRICE STANDS AS IT IS DUE TO THE TRULY REAR NATURE OF THE DUST JACKET. BOOK CONDITION ORIGINAL BLUE CLOTH BINDING. GOLD LETTERING. SPINE INTACT. BUMPS TO SPINES BASE AND TOP.
THE BOOK IS IN GREAT CONDITION, THE DUST JACKET IS SHOWING A FEW SIGNS OF AGEING ON THE CORNERS, PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR MORE DETAIL. THE INDISE OF THE BOOK IS PERFECT.
