Early Printings of this 20th Century Classic are Scarce and Becoming Increasing Hard to Find!! An attractive option for collectors who desire a First Edition while avoiding the exorbitant cost of a First Printing!! Hardcover with its original dust jacket, NOT price-clipped! Original price of $5.00. Published by Putnam, 1955. A First American Edition/Third Printing. Please remember this is NOT a First Edition/First Printing! "Third Impression" is clearly stated on the copyright page and "Third Printing" is clearly stated on the dust jacket, inside front flap. Once again, this is NOT a First Edition/First Printing. This rare treasure has some very clearly visible wear, mainly to the dust jacket, but is still in lovely, Highly Collectible condition! The book appears gently read and has no internal writing, no internal foxing, no remainder marks, no missing pages and is NOT Ex-Libris or a BCE. The binding is holding tight and the pages are still surprisingly crisp and clean! Some general/shelf/age wear along with creases/scuffing/marks/wear to the spine/corners/cloth boards, particularly noticeable along the edges, creases/wear to some of the pages and marks/wear to the edge/fore pages, NOT affecting the text! Please note the wear to the spine/corners/cloth boards, particularly along the edges, and the creases/wear that is present on some of the pages. The wear, while not terribly egregious, is still clearly visible and should be carefully examined/considered. The original dust jacket is fully intact and NOT price-clipped but has extensive wear. The wear is VERY clearly visible and should be carefully examined/considered. Some general/shelf/age wear along with creases, chipping, marks and numerous rips resulting in some loss of paper. There are also numerous pieces of clear tape attached to the inside of the dust jacket! Please note the wear on the spine, at the corners and near/along the edges! In particular, please note the numerous, large rips near/along the edges! The wear, especially the rips, is VERY clearly visible and should be carefully examined/considered. We tend to grade the condition of our books rather harshly and took into consideration any and all wear when determining the value of this rare book. Once again, the wear to both the book and especially the dust jacket is VERY clearly visible and should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. Numerous photographs from various angles were taken for your consideration/inspection. Please closely and carefully view ALL the pictures for further clarification!!
