Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good Plus. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 1st Edition. First Edition ( 'First published in 1956'). Once listed, I believe this will be the Only dust jacketed first edition for sale anywhere on the Internet. As you can see from the photos, the covers are quite beautiful. They're also very clean and have very little wear, slight rubbing at a corner or two. The gilt lettering on the spine is bright. The book is solidly bound from cover to cover. The inside covers and end papers have darkening at their margins. That is not the case with any other page. The pages are in very good condition. There is a tiny indent or crease off the top edge of the half-title and title page, quite minor. I'm Not seeing any creases or semi-creases anywhere else. The pages are very clean throughout. I didn't see any soiling at all. There are no markings anywhere in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. The second one will show you a small loss off the bottom edge of the spine, removing a few of the letters in the publisher's name. There isn't much wear other than that, just a a few tiny losses off the top edge of the spine. I've provided three photos so you can judge for yourself. The flaps are in nice condition. There is a small stamped date off the top edge of the front flap (July 12 1956). The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned.
