Lewis, Sinclair. Elmer Gantry. Jonathan Cape, London, 1927.
Price: US$35.00 + shipping
Description: 479 pgs. British printing, blue cloth binding (not red) with plate-stamped border line around front panel, and gilt spine titles. There are defects: one corner has been bent, but now shows only a crease at 1/2" from tip. Light spotting in white, front and rear covers (not pronounced), one half-inch shelf-pull tear at headband, not quite into type. Internally, the free front fly is missing and half-title shows foxing, likely from past newsprint contact, as does end-leaf. Binding is otherwise sound and square, no other markings except small 'Brentano's, Paris' tag on rear board. Hard to find in any condition, and better than it sounds descriptively. Good used condition (no dust jacket).
