First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A lovely bright copy of this very scarce first impression with no inscriptions and clean pages throughout, albeit with a little light toning to the end papers and page block edge. The boards look fresh and the title lettering is still crisp. The dust jacket is bright and not price clipped, showing the original price of 10s 6d net. There is a little light edge wear, minor chipping and creasing and the back, which is mainly white, is somewhat toned around the edges. Superb copy in all.
