Evelyn Waugh – The Loved One – First Edition
£85.00
First UK edition, first printing. Published by Chapman & Hall, London, in 1948. This is a very good copy. Beautifully illustrated by Stuart Boyle, the dust wrapper is frontally bright, clean and with some slight wear to the corners. The spine and the rear panel are slightly faded with edgewear. It has not been price clipped and shows the original 7s. 6d. net price. The end papers are marbled in a deep blue and white. The boards are free from chips and marks. The text blocks are bright and clean, and the top edge is navy blue in colour. This is the revised edition, suited for the UK. Overall, this is a very good copy.
The first UK edition is also the first illustrated edition.
