Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. First U.S. Edition, Later Printi. Blue cloth with gold decorative cover and spine stamp, plain end papers. This is a delicate copy. I will not exhaustively document every weak point in the binding, and every about to come out gathering. There are at least 5 weak points, a cracked front hinge, and a repaired crack in the rear hinge. The weak binding spots are towards the ends (front and back) of the text block. Whether the weak points are cracks are not is at a certain level grader's judgement, but I would say pages iii, and 766 are certainly cracked. Short tears on pages 29 and 21. Small stains (coffee?) pages 8-10. The first signature is loose and feels ready to come out. Discoloration on the front endpapers near the gutter I am assuming is discolored glue from the binding process bleeding through and showing due to years and storage conditions. The exterior has wear to the board corners, which is worse on the front cover corners. Headcap is frayed to the point of being partially gone. Tailcap is frayed and worn. Wear spot in cloth on top edge of rear panel. There is a stain on the bottom edge and several speck stains on the fore-edge. Some tanning to the text block.The primacy of various points on this edition of Anna Karenina has not been authoritatively established. This copy does not have the decorative endpapers, advertisements, and title page graphic that seem to be accepted as points for the first printing. Like other early printings on offer, this has the 1886 date on the copyright page and blue cloth and gilt stamp. An early printing of the first American edition, which is predated by the original in Russian.…
