Jacket design by Donya Melanson Associates. 5 5/8" x 8 ½." 212 pages, complete. Dust wrapper and page and covers of book are very clean and intact. Binding is tight. Dust wrapper has slight wear at the top of the back panel and spine. Dust wrapper is not price-clipped. No remainder marks. A fine book in a fine dust wrapper. From the front flap of the dust wrapper: "David A. Jasen, the foremost authority on the life and work of P. G. Wodehouse, and his official biographer, has gathered together a treasure of previously uncollected Wodehouse articles and short stories. ? Included here are the only mystery story Wodehouse ever wrote, the first of his many articles for Punch, an hilarious spoof of the advertising world, amusing accounts of English public-school life, one of the few Reggie Pepper stories, and many other collector's delights. The Wodehouse trademark is the butler, and the connoisseur will not be disappointed in Keggs, his very first butler and the prototype for the immortal Jeeves. Taken mostly from long-defunct newspapers and magazines, these gems were written very early in his writing career. Here is proof positive that even in the beginning, Plum Wodehouse had the matter firmly in hand.".
