ASK A QUESTION
There are two states of the first impression dust jacket for Scoop. Originally the tromp l'oiel newspaper image had the partial banner 'aily Beas' in the style and typeface of the Daily Express. Beaverbrook (himself lampooned in the novel as Lord Copper) cited the mast head in his proposed action against Waugh and Chapman & Hall who restruck the jackets with the masthead entirely blank. However, they left the devastating descriptions of 'Lord Copper' intact. And they got away with it!

First edition, first issue with 's' in 'as' in last line of p88, in second state dust jacket; 8vo; slight offsetting to endpapers, minor toning to stock; publisher's black and red patterned boards, with the original dust jacket, without the 'Daily Beast' logo; a lovely copy in the lightly frayed and rubbed dust jacket with only a hint of fading to spine.
