This is a “very good plus” vintage hardcover in two-tone boards and cloth head and tail bands sewn into the binding, edited by Matthew Bruccolis, published in 1979 by MJF Book, 784 pages.
First edition.
Hinges are tight and crisp, text block is square, closes tightly, uniform color all around, outer edge beginning to hint of foxing. Board corners are all crisp, not bumped. No writing, no loose, torn or folded pages.
Accompanying vintage dust wrapper is crisp, complete, not price clipped. No marks or writing, no tags, no tears. A little edge wear at spine and upper corner folds, otherwise, very crisp, could pass on a book in a new bookstore.
See accompanying images for complete condition details and table of contents/list of shorts included.
Will make a wonderful gift for the Fitzgerald collector!
Will ship promptly, carefully packed.
