About this Item

A VERY RARE EARLY MODERN LIBRARY EDITION WITH DUST JACKET!

First printed by the Modern Library in 1917. This is an early reprint from Spring 1918 with a B&L dust jacket. According to Toledano this is a spine type 1 with beautiful textured marbled endpapers. A C4 catalog with 50 modern library titles are present on the front free endpaper, dating the book to the spring of 1918.

The book is NEAR FINE with minor wear on extremities. Binding is tight and solid, gilt on cove and spine is bright and perfect. Marbled end papers are very interesting with a textured look and feel to them - different from the 1917 printings I have seen. No writing, marks, or book plates in the book. Included presumably from a previous owner is at black and white portrait of Maurice Maeterlinck with a sub-heading "Camera Portrait by E.O. Hoppe, London". GORGEOUS!

The Dust jacket is type Dj 1=BL and includes titles from 1925 but not 1926 indicating a 1925 dustjacket. 95 cent price present and bright on the spine. The dust jacket is in NEAR FINE condition with minimal chipping. It is BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL - rare in this condition and must have been protected from the sun as there is very little to no age toning. Now protected in an archival-quality dust jacket protector. Incredibly bright and beautiful!
