Very scarce with the wrapper

Yeats, Jack B. ~ Sailing Sailing Swiftly

Putnam, London : 1933

The sole UK printing published by Putnam, London in 1933. The BOOK is in Very Good++ or better condition. Original yellow cloth with gilt titling to the spine. Light pushing at the spine tips. Some toning and spotting to the text-block. Mild offsetting to the blank end-papers. Free from inscriptions. Mild to moderate spotting in places more-so to the prelims, due to the quality of the paper stock used. The scarce WRAPPER is complete and is in near Fine condition. Light edge-wear with very small losses at the corners. Small nicks and some light rubbing in places. Light toning to the spine. The wrapper artwork by the author looks striking in the removable Brodart archival cover. A novel with 32 B/W illustrations by the author and acclaimed artist, the brother of W.B. Yeats. Copies very rarely turn up in commerce with the wrapper.
