The Waves
New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1931. Good / Good. Item #48260
New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1931. First American Edition Stated. Octavo; publisher's cloth, brown topstain, in pictorial dust jacket by Vanessa Bell retaining original price ($2.50); 297pp. Rather considerable chipping and closed tears to jacket margins with losses to spine ends, spine panel quite darkened and brittle, textblock rippled and quite heavily dampstained.
A Good copy at best, though retaining Vanessa Bell's beautifully designed dust jacket. As a previous bookseller has written in pencil on the front free endpaper, "1st Ed BUT has experienced waves."
