Dead Men's Money
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1920. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine / Very Good. Item #013187
8vo., 313pp. Beautiful First US Edition with no other printings listed as called for. Published in the UK a year earlier under the title, "Droonin'Watter". Bound in original grey cloth with titles in red on front board and spine. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear save some gentle bumping to spine ends. A bit of staining to the front end-paper. Small, neat, contemporary gift inscription on front end-paper. Remarkably clean pages without a hint of toning or foxing. Very attractive, and quite uncommon, unclipped dust-jacket, ($2.00), has a couple of tiny nicks and closed tears. Some minor rubbing. Small piece of tape on reverse but invisible from the exterior. A very pretty collectable copy and scarce with jacket and in such nice condition. (Hubin, P.145).
