Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. A VERY RARE 1925 MODERN LIBRARY EDITION WITH DUST JACKET! The Child of Pleasure by Gabriele D'Annunzio. 1925 MODERN LIBRARY / BONI & LIVERIGHT EDITION. Per Toledano the first printing was not identified on the copyright in this edition but book and dust jacket match a first printing except for the fact that this is a blue leatherette in spine #4 instead of spine #3. Likely printed at same time as the first but during the transition to the #4 spine. The dust jacket has only titles from 1925 and before so this matches a First edition.

The dust jacket is GOOD+ with chipping as seen in photos and a old tape repairs but overall in decent condition and very rare for this title.
