1978 The Easton Press Edition

What a true first shows: The true first is the Chatto & Windus cloth first edition, London, 1932 (US first: Harper & Brothers, 1932). This Easton Press leather Collector's Edition is a 1978 reprint, not a first in any sense.

Gilt-decorated full leather, raised spine bands, all-edges-gilt — a hallmark Easton Press production
