Description:
London: John Lane The Bodley Head, (1937). Trial copy of the first edition. Quarto., cream cloth, pp. xx, 12. Edited, with a Foreword, by John Goss. With an Introduction by Sir John Squire and Decorations by. J. Whitehead. This is a trial copy, containing only a fraction of the pages of the finished book. The binding design of the finished book is rendered on the rear board. I have not had the opportunity to examine the published edition of this, and am therefore unable to state whether or not this is a proof or variant of the dust jacket. A fine copy in a very good dust jacket, slightly dust soiled, and with a little dark staining along the bottom edge of the front panel. A nice copy of an unusual item, certainly produced in only a handful of copies at best, possibly unique..
