George Allen and Unwin 1937 1st edition, 2nd impression. Lovely book, WITH ORIGINAL UNRESTORED DUST JACKET. Arguably more rare than a 1st/1st with jacket! Restored dust jackets actually reduces the value. Most keen collector prefer the original, warts and all!

Jacket complete with paper loss on spine ends especially spine head, cover white still bright, slight sunning to spine color, a couple of minor foxing spots to inner flaps as well as end pages of book. Pages bright, binding tight, no lean, tasteful owners bookplate to blank end page.

This can actually be removed with only minor damage Very rare, book and a jacket as good as they come! We accept dollars, Euros and Pounds.
