A VERY RARE 1921 MODERN LIBRARY EDITION WITH DUST JACKET IN AMAZING CONDITION! Sapho by Alphonse Daudet and Manon Lescaut by Antoine Prevost. First published by The Modern Library in 1919 this is a 1921 BONI & LIVERIGHT MODERN LIBRARY printing. This is a very rare early Modern Library book in dust jacket. May possibly be the first printing since the only copies that seem to be in existence are from 1921 - even the Modern Library collectors page has never seen a copy from 1919. Bound in brown imitation leather (spine #2) with Brodzky end papers. The book is in FINE condition with extremely bright gilt on cover and spine. Leatherette binding is clean tight and solid. NO owners signature or any other writing anywhere in the book - contents extremely clean and bright. Even text blocks are extremely clean. Brodzky endpapers are clean and bright. Solid binding, brown topstain perfect. GORGEOUS! APPEARS UNREAD AND UNOPENED AND IN NEW BOOKSTORE CONDITION! The dust jacket is NEAR FINE+ with slight chipping on the bottom spine otherwise in extremely great shape for its age - super bright and clean! The list of titles on the flaps and rear panel includes one from 1921, but none from 1922, indicating a 1921 printing. Again, there seems to be no book or dust jacket in existence from 1919 so this may be the actual first printing. Now protected in an archival-quality dust jacket protector. EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION! **I WILL BE LISTIING OVER 400 COLLECTIBLE, RARE, OR SIGNED MODERN LIBRARY EDITIONS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS FROM 30 YEARS OF ACTIVE COLLECTING AROUND THE WORLD - PLEASE VISIT MY SELLERS PAGE TO VIEW THEM ALL**.…

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
