Description:
This is a signed first edition copy of a novel published in 1913. It is a large, handsome volume with the cover bearing an elaborate gilt rectangle of Art Nouveau leaves and swirls and a color illustration inset. The condition is quite good with the following exceptions: the spine is sunned, bumped, and faded, and the gilt lettering and design on the spine is faded. The corners also have wear. The inside cover page bearing the author's signature has a rectangular discoloration, as shown in the photo. There is a frontispiece with full color illustration but the tissue covering has come loose but is present and could be tipped in. The title page is printed in red and black, and red is used for the beginning of each chapter. There are six color illustrations. 118 pages, random-cut deckle edge thick pages; a bit of foxing on the back inside covers.Please examine the photos to evaluate the condition of this rare book, and please contact me for more information.

Description:
Great first edition of an etiquette book from 1955, bright blue dust jacket with period illustration in black, white, and orange. Text tackles topics for newly married couples; some are quaint but some we're still struggling with! Binding tight and pages very clean; covers show a little dirt at bottom. Dust jacket has chipping along bottom edge and one rip at top, as shown in photo, and some wear and sunning on spine as shown. Overall very good condition.
