ARNOLD, Ralph. House with the Magnolias. London: Heinemann. 1931. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s red cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the dust jacket. This copy inscribed by the author at the front endpaper and dated June 1940. A very good copy, the cloth a trifle bumped at the spine head and tail, else clean, the binding tight and square. The contents clean but for a few minor marks to textblock edges. The dust jacket priced 7/6 net to the spine, a couple of small nicks and closed tears to the spine panel and to corners, but still a bright copy. The debut novel by Ralph Arnold, a Kentish author and associate of Ian Fleming whose brother, Peter, he was lifelong friends with. This early attempt tells of adolescent romance, ‘typical of those easy romances of eighteen that all of us know and most of us lose’. Arnold began work for publishers Constable immediately after the war, eventually rising to chairman by the late 50s. Uncommon, more so inscribed.
