Description
Boston: Little, Brown & Co, 1951. First Edition. his first book. Fine in a near fine example of the first issue dustjacket (with the price on the front flap partially over the R in “Salinger” and Salinger’s hair just touching the top edge in the portrait on the rear panel), lightly toned with minute wear at the corners. Copies marginally less fine are many times more common. Fame is Salinger’s Lex Luthor, but Catcher stands tall as the modern coming of age novel and one of the inevitable classics in English from the second half of the century. Custom half calf case.

Description
1880. New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1880. Undated endpaper ads. Original mustard yellow cloth decorated in black. First American Edition (it is uncertain whether this or Munro's "Seaside Library" edition preceded; Holt's was, however, the authorized one, and also it was listed in Publishers' Weekly a week earlier). This was issued as No. 118 in Holt's "Leisure Hour Series," the series in which most of Hardy's early novels first appeared in America. By 1880, the books in this series were being issued with numbers, with undated endpaper ads, and in mustard yellow cloth; in the 1870s the volumes had been issued un-numbered, with dated endpaper ads, and in cream cloth. In this copy the endpaper ads, though undated, are the primary ones (on the inside front cover listing no Hardy volumes issued after this one, and withOUT this title on the front free endpaper). This is a very good copy (minor wear at the spine ends, a bit of faint soil). See Purdy p. 35.
