About this Item

Stated First Edition; A Near Fine book in a Near Fine dust jacket. SIGNED by Ms. Du Maurier on the half title page. An outstanding copy of this novel, very scarce signed, originally begun by Du Maurier's friend and mentor Arthur Quiller-Couch, then completed by Du Maurier at the request of Quiller-Couch's daughter; Du Maurier is of course the author of the classic novels "Rebecca", "My Cousin Rachel", etc. This copy is in near fine condition with a square tight binding, bright blue spine lettering, and clean, white pages throughout; light foxing is present to the page edges and paste downs with a larger area of foxing to the epigraph page (possibly from a card or bookmark), else fine. Housed in a clean, crisp, and bright dust jacket that shows only mild rubbing to the edges, a small, mostly inconspicuous stain to the front panel, and some mild foxing to the spine, back panel, and flap edges. Overall, a beautiful example of this title, probably the nicest signed copy currently available in the marketplace. A nice edition to the Du Maurier collector's library or English Literature collection. Not remaindered, not price clipped ($4.50 intact), and not ex-library; protected in a Mylar sleeve and will ship in a sturdy box.
