About This Item
This first edition, with its glowing jacket-flap recommendation of the book and prediction that it "will be read by many people who ordinarily would never dream of taking up a 'Western' story," is an excellent copy, signed in the year of publication. 8'' x 5.25''. Original tan buckram binding with blue and gilt lettering to spine. Original unclipped ($2.00) color pictorial dust jacket with Random House bookmark intact on rear flap. Blue topstain. 310 pages. Signed by Clark to front flyleaf, dated "Sept. 25, 1940." Owner's name to front flyleaf. Dust jacket with small abrasion to front panel including a tiny hole, light toning to spine. Binding with some toning to spine. Much nicer than typically seen.
