Price: US$5000.00 + shipping
Condition: Very Good
Description: A very good copy of the first edition in a fine 1923 popular wrapper.There are only a handful of the first edition in wrapper and the price is now horrendous and who wants to spend US$30,000 on a book unless you are a billionaire . The cheaper option is now to buy the first in an early wrapper . This doesn't always work as some of the popular editions are smaller in size ,Piccadilly Jim would be a good example where the first is four times as thick as the fragile 2/- edition. In this case the match works . Language: eng
