About this Item: J. B. Lippincott Company, 1934. Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Stated 23rd Impression, no additional date listed, but it must have been between 1943 and 1945 because the copyright page states: Under Government regulations for saving paper during the war, the thickness of this book has been reduced below the customary peacetime standards. The text is complete and unabridged. The book was originally published by Frederick A. Stokes, which was acquired by Lippincott in 1943, hence the two-year span I indicated.Very Good in Very Good Plus jacket with a small spot and slight soiling, two teensie (it's an industry term) chips on top and bottom spine, a (pencil?) mark on the rear, else remarkably fine. What might have helped save it from paper drives and led to its great care over these past decades is that this copy is SIGNED by Munro Leaf, signature only, on the title page. Leaf may have had an unfair advantage when it came to finding a publisher - he worked as an editor for Frederick A. Stokes! Leaf is best known for authoring Ferdinand, which he jotted down in half an hour to showcase the talent of his friend Robert Lawson. This delightful book, a signed survivor, is protected in a Demco cover. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 001237
