Thoughts and Adventures.
London, Thornton Butterworth, 1932
'We are truly delighted at this success which confounds the Jonahs of the Bookselling trade. To keep pace with the increasing demand, we had to get both printers and binders to work overtime. The sheets were delivered by passenger train, and the cases were made by the binders in advance.' The publisher's quote in Cohen.
First edition, first printing; 8vo (225 x 150 mm); photographic frontispiece, seven political cartoons, spotting to preliminary text leaves, general age-toning, browning to pp 110 & 111, otherwise internally very good; publisher's cloth boards, gilt lettering to spine and upper board, mild rubbing to extremities, printed dust-jacket, chipped with small loss to head of spine, closed splits to spine folds, general age-toning, small chips to corners, otherwise a very good, rare survival.
