About This Item
New York: The Century Co, 1920. Pictorial boards. Near Fine/Very Good +. Palmer Cox. A clean, very presentable copy of the stated 2nd printing, circa early 1920s, following on the heels of the 1910 1st edition. Still though, to be this clean and to boast such an appealing dustjacket from roughly 100 years ago is uncommon indeed. Tight and Near Fine in its laminate, pictorial boards and in a remarkably bright, VG+ dustjacket, with a 1 1/2" chip along the upper spine edge. Still though, presents very well. Quarto, nicely illustrated throughout by Palmer Cox.
