London: Bodley Head, 1926. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. (London: John Lane The Bodley Head Limited 1926). First UK Edition. Publisher's red board with gilt lettering to the front board and spine. Top edge stained vibrant red. A book-plate to the front free end-paper and slight softening to the head and tail f the still still overall a VG+ copy (with NO inscriptions but with an attractive book-plate to the front paste-down). In the rare dust wrapper which is un-priced (as this copy was sourced from the British Commonwealth thus being an "export" copy. The D/W is identical to that originally issued in the UK apart from the price of 7/6 net to the spine. The D/W has benefitted from some highly skilled archival restoration by a skilled paper conservator including replacement of the publisher's name (THE BODLEY HEAD) at the base of the spine. Included is a "before and after" image of the D/W pre and post restoration and a black and white photocopy of a 7/6 net D/W which confirms that the D/W is identical (other than the price). Quite scarce in our experience. Photographs/scans available upon request.
