A great American novel. 8'' x 5.5''. Original pictorial wrappers with flaps. Front fly leaf stamped with "TO BE PUBLISHED" and "PRICE" completed in pen with "Aug. 16" and "probably 2.50". 301 1 pages. Housed in custom green cloth clamshell box. Wrappers with expert reinforcement along front fold some small attendant areas of restoration; spine and rear panel toned faint spine creasing. Harcourt, Brace and Company unknown
