Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. B002JYXG4M Hi. Welcome to our small, family-owned bookstore. This is the one-volume Harcourt Brace and Company 'First and Second Series in One Volume' 1948 edition (First Edition) of Virginia Woolf's acclaimed The Common Reader. Hardcover with dust jacket. Considering the age, both are in very good condition. The dust jacket is altogether sun-faded (original light blue is seen on the inside flaps) has four chips on the backstrip (about 1/4" the three bog ones) and on each the corners one (about 1/8" each) ; the back strip is lightly discolored but also has some stains (including two 1/4'" dia. red spots) and slight soiling. Same for the back The flaps have trimmed edges, but the usual price corner is clipped. The book itself (dark blue covers with gilt lettering) shows little wear (tiny white spot on the corners, no turning-in; but a significant bump [1/2" long; 1/4" deep] on the crown of the backstrip cuts into the gilt top-line]. Inside. a previous owner's signature on the flyleaf, and I saw pencil notes on three pages (the previous owner was a literature professor, so the notes might be helpful). The covers themselves are clean, besides for the bump. The pages are clean. The binding is strong. 293 pages. Packaged using bubble wrap and a sturdy cardboard box. Tracking number provided for no extra cost. Thanks for checking out this book from our small town brick-and-mortar and supporting a small business.
