Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Wynwood Press, 1989. New York. 415 pages. No Dust Jacket. A true first edition, first printing of John Grisham's first book! Signed and dated by John Grisham directly to the title page. Before the Doubleday printing, before the Wynwood bookclub, there was a tiny Wynwood hardcover print run of 5,000 copies of this edition. Legend has it that JG actually sold copies out of the trunk of his car. As we know things took a decidedly different path soon thereafter. It is an awesome story of hard work and success for a genuinely kind and generous person. As for this copy, binding and hinges are strong and sound. Book is tight. Plenty of time and effort has gone into this very copy which was previously in poor condition. The book has made a remarkable recovery yet is still being sold as Good+ only. The panels have been professionally cleaned and touched up as has some of the cloth. Most colors match up well though the purple touch-up on the bottom front edge is off. Copper colored endpapers have been replaced with same like matching colored endpapers. Half-title page is still slightly soiled. Title page and a couple of flanking pages have a circular stain as if something was dripped on the page. Despite noted flaws, this an incredibly uncommon true first printing of the author's first book SIGNED and dated by John Grisham directly to the title page. Sold as Good+ without the DJ. A large, tall book measuring approximately 9.5 inches tall by 6.5 inches wide. Size/height is the easiest way to quickly identify a true first Wynwood edition from the later Wynwood book club edition. Additionally, the color scheme is completely different as first printings have a purple cloth binding over copper/rust colored paper boards. Wynwood book club editions tend to be black. A true first edition, first printing; signed. Signed by Author(s).
