Anne Parrish - The Perennial Bachelor

Grosset & Dunlap, 1926 (First published by Harpers, 1925). Hardcover. 8vo. 324 pp. Reprint. Fair condition. Blue cloth boards are rubbed along joints, edges. Mottling stain to textblock top and fore-edge. Patchy foxing present on but limited to endpapers. Lower forecorners of secondary advertising pages following novel are dog-eared. Occasional smudging to fore-edge, outer margin of pages. Dust jacket condition is good(-ish). Chipping to spine tips, forecorners; rubbing along joints and edges of jacket; small dampstain on jacket spine mid-height along front joint, as well as some scattered grubby discoloration. So it does have a few flaws. But what do you want? A dust jacket from 1926 that looks perfect? With that retailer phony straight-from-the-slipcase facsimile look? Really?
