About this Item
Lovely edition of Steinbeck's classic novel with full-color endpapers & internal illustrations by Wesley Dennis, best known for his work on the "Misty of Chincoteague" & other horse books. Orig. published in 1937, this is the FIRST EDITION, first printing of this special slipcased edition from Viking (First, Thus). With gray cloth-covered boards & a front paper pastedown of the pony, this hardcover book is in VG+ condition: exceptionally clean, pastedown is flawless! No chips or tears. Binding is straight & strong, pages moderately tanned, commensurate with age. The soft watercolor illustrations are flawless & completely unmarked. Slightly bumped corners & a few very faint, small spots to both boards. The cardboard slipcase also has a front paper pastedown, which is bright & clean, but is downgraded to only Good though due to light soil & edgewear; bottom edge has been reglued. A lovely collectible! We are also offering another copy of this book with NO slipcase, but less cost; please see our listing #021066). Our photos depict the Exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same day shipping on all orders received by 2 pm Weekdays (Pacific time); later orders, weekends & holidays ship very next business day. Seller Inventory # 016594
