First Edition
Hard Cover. Dust Jacket Condition: Dust Jacket. First Edition. (London: Geoffrey Bles n.d. [1924]). First UK Edition. Publisher's pale green boards with black lettering to the front board and spine. 8vo; 6 1/2 x 4, 121 pages. Published at 2/6 in April 1924 (per the English Catalogue of Books for 1924). The boards browned in several places matching chips in the D/W still overall a VG copy. In the RARE D/W priced 2/6 net to the spine (as called for). The D/W is edge chipped in several places (including the head and tail of the spine) but none of the small edge chips affect any of the lettering or design of the D/W. Quite uncommon in first edition. 'Diner-Out' is a regular contributor to the "Daily Mail" on those most important subjects - Good Food and Good Wine. It is good to see that numerous restaurants that were at the top of their game in the early 1920's continue to be around nearly 100 years later. Photographs/scans available upon request.
