Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Fredric John Warburg (27 November 1898 - 25 May 1981) was a British publisher, who in 1935 founded the company Secker & Warburg. He is best known for publishing Orwell's major books Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), as well as works… by other leading figures such as Thomas Mann and Franz Kafka. On 21 January 1933 Warburg married the painter and designer Pamela Bryer (née de Bayou, widowed) (20 March 1905-1978). This volume is inscribed by Warburg on the ffep "To my darling wife Pamela, from Fred". She appears to have then read this book with pencil in hand, underling, commenting, questioning some of the content. There is also a trace of her red lipstick on the title page and front paste down. Other than the aforementioned, this unique volume has a little foxing on the page block edge. The black cloth covered boards with gilt lettering to spine have a few white marks from handling, such as from hand lotion having been applied to the hands. The corners are bumped. The unclipped dust jacket has a little edge wear but no cuts tears or chips. Please examine all seller photos of this rare piece of publishing history. Inscribed by Author(s).
