About this Item

In French. This may be a first edition. I really don't know. 1946 is the only date on the copyright page and 1946 is on the title page. What I do know is that this book is signed and inscribed by the author on the half-title pageThe signed inscription can be seen in the second photo. The photos will also show you the covers of the book. They look pretty clean, however they do have toning/darkening at most of the margins. So I've rated this book only Good Minus because it has its share of wear. The wear includes some jagged edges (with some small loss far from the print) over the first few pages (none anywhere else in the book), also occasional creasing coming off the top edge, also, as you might expect,age toning of the pages, also the first five pages, once the story begins, stick out a little bit at the middle edge (that's why they got to be jagged) even though they don't appear to have any binding issue. The binding of the book is okay. I've turned the pages over many times. Nothing is loose. There are a few instances where there is a very, very slight space at the juncture between two facing ages, again no loose pages, so the binding is decent. What you are going to want to know is that there are a lot of uncut pages. If you cut them, you will be the first to have read the book. I don't see any markings of any kind in the book. There are no attachments. And with the exception of the author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The pages, I failed to mention, are quite clean. I'm not seeing any soiling at all. Looking, obviously, at the ones that aren't uncut. The ones that are uncut are not very likely to have any soiling So if you are a fan of this author, here is an opportunity to have perhaps the Only signed copy of any of his books. It's possible. If this book is purchased outside of the U.S. I should be able to package it securely at under 2 pounds which would make the cost of shipment $25.00, not the quoted $34.00 (which is for under 3 pounds). After I've received the order I would click on Reduce Shipping and you would receive an invoice with the lowered shipping cost.
