Laughing Gas by P. G. Wodehouse - 1936

Garden City, NY: Doubleday, Doran & Company, Inc., 1936. First US Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, stated first edition on the copyright page. Orange cloth boards show some spotting and soiling along with edge and corner bumps/wear. Internal binding is good, no hinge issues at boards though there is a slight pulling at the title page. No signatures or bookplates, no library markings. The front end page does show faint indentation of where a price was penciled in the corner and then later erased and there is a indentation of 575 in the upper center area - almost like somebody wrote it on a piece of paper on top of the page. Paper is toned due to age and there is scattered foxing and spotting present. The end pages in pastedowns are toned the most and also show the most foxing areas.
