The Poems of Percy Shelley c.1974 Vintage cloth bound hardcover in slipcase with club insert
$28.00
This is a super crispy “near fine” vintage hardcover in decorated blue cloth wraps. The endpapers are decorated and there is a cloth head and tail band in the binding. Spine and hinges are tight. No writing, no loose, torn or folded pages. One small, light scuff or mark on the upper edge of the outer block is the only thing keeping me from saying that this grades as “fine”.
The matching tan paper wrapped board slipcase is intact, no splits, no dents in corners or edges. Relatively uniform in color all around. One side does have two nickel to quarter size stains – looks like wine.
Really gorgeous book.

Dylan Thomas “Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog” First edition 1940 vintage hardcover
First American edition as per Bill McBride's guide to identifying first editions: no additional printings are noted on the verso (see accompanying images). 1,000 copies were printed. This is a "very good - " vintage book with a solid spine and sturdy cover hinges. The paste downs have the remains of the tape used to affix the dust jacket to the book, with the front end paper having the original owner's name neatly penned. Front and back board surfaces are relatively even overall, not spotted or stained. Some edge wear to bottom board edges. The board corners are mildly bumped with a hint of wear at very tips. Titling on the spine is fairly rubbed. Book has a hint of spine cock (when laying flat, as you look at the top or bottom edge, the front cover over hangs the back cover by a tiny bit - see accompanying images). The original vintage dust jacket is not price clipped, showing original publisher's price of $2.50. Remains of tape runs along outer edges of both front and back flaps. The spine is well tanned, with small losses at top and bottom. Wear and small losses at the corners of all flap folds. Not a perfect jacket, but still pleasant. Now carefully encased in a removable archival sleeve for protection and presentation. See accompanying images for full condition details. Will ship to you carefully packaged and fully insured.
