This is the first edition, early printing. The red hats on the front endpages run from smaller on the left side to larger on the right side (indicating the second state -- and Not the first state/printing). The dust jacket does not mention the price of "And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street". The inside back flap of the dust jacket has the reviews/blurbs for "And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street" (again, with no price mentioned). Neither the book nor the dust jacket mention any title later that this book. The copyright page states only the 1938 date (with no later dates or printings listed). The dust jacket is price-clipped. ***** This book is SIGNED by the author (Dr. Seuss) on the page opposite the title page (and with his usual squiggle/flourish beneath his signature). Dr. Seuss did not inscribe this book to anyone; it is just signed by him. ***** Signed examples of this title are rare. ***** The book and dust jacket are in nice condition. There is NO writing, NO bookplates, and NO remainder marks. It is NOT a book club edition and NOT a former library book.
