John Masefield – The Box of Delights – First Edition 1935
£600.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Heinemann in London, 1935. This is a very good copy. Without the dust wrapper. The deep blue clothbound boards are slightly bumped at the spine tips and corners. The titling is bright and the spine is slightly sunned. The text blocks are markedly bright and clean. The end papers, wonderfully illustrated throughout, are highly presentable but with some light toning in places. The text blocks are slightly foxed, which extends to the edges of the preliminaries. Small gift inscription to the front pastedown and is in near fine condition.
Most likely Masefield’s best work.
