New York: L.C. Page & Company, 1908. Hardcover. Good+/Fair.
New York: L.C. Page & Company, (1908).
Very Early Printing (Sixteenth Impression, December, 1909).
Illustrated.
Good+ in Fair Dust Jacket. Front hinge cracked else tight binding; pages pretty clean; contemporary owner's inscription on half-title page; lacking front endpaper; moderate wear; dust jacket is worn with several chips, several tears, and a little scuffing and soil; not without faults but very rare.
A very early example of the great classic in dust jacket. Superlatively scarce. One of less than five copies 1909 or earlier in dust jacket we have knowledge of, only one of which appeared on the public market. That copy appeared at auction at Sotheby's in 2010 with a $20,000 to $30,000 estimate but was removed from the sale before the auction date. So no copies this early in jacket have actually been auctioned in the last 100 years.
Because no copies of the first printing in dust jacket are known to exist, this is a collector's best bet for an early jacketed example. If a first printing were to surface, you'd be looking at $75,000 to $100,000+.
We also have the rare first printing of Anne of the Island in dust jacket listed at this time.

It can also appear because another family member may be feeling medical anxieties. And, of course, new body awareness and needs for privacy develop naturally in children's early years, so all these feelings can make it very hard for them to let doctors investigate the workings of…
