1924 EDITION OF WHEN WE WERE VERY YOUNG
BY A. A. MILNE
A lovely book, it is bound in blue cloth with gilt illustrations to the front and back covers and gilt title to the spine. There is some bumping to the corners and edges of the book but the boards are generally in good condition. The pages have a little age related tanning, but quite clean otherwise, gilt to the top edges. The endpapers again are quite clean. The half title page has been neatly pasted to the front endpape...r, not noticeable, but should be pointed out. All in all a good clean copy with no inscriptions or writing in the book.
The book was published by Methuen & Co and is a 1st Edition / 5th Printing, with the date printed in the book. A highly collectable book, the 1st / 1st Editions are very expensive, this copy was published just weeks after the 1st / 1st, which was published in November 1924.
All of our books are carefully packaged and are posted tracked and signed. International buyers are welcome, postage costs can be combined, just get in touch.
