Jurgen by James Branch Cabell. The Bodley Head 1923 With dust jacket.

Description: Jurgen by James Branch Cabell. The Bodley Head, London 1923 With dust jacket. A very nice copy, the end papers are a little toned. The top edge of the text block is red, and this has some marks on it. A previous owner's name neatly written in ink on the free front end paper. A nice copy with little shelf wear. The outstanding thing, though, is the beautiful and very rare dust wrapper with its fabulous Frank C Papé design. Papé illustrated an earlier, limited edition with full page plates, but in this edition, only the first letter of each chapter is decorative. Jurgen is considered to be in the vanguard of fantasy writing, and has influenced many other writers since. 511All the books which I list are from our own private collection, which is extensive. As you will see from my feedback, I am very keen that all buyers are happy with their purchases. I give as much information as possible about the condition of books, although the best impression can be gleaned from the photos, which are always scans, as I believe this gives the clearest image. Incidentally, the line down the centre of the image is a fault with my scanner, not the item. In descriptions I tend to err on the side of being critical, so items might sound worse than they are! This is to avoid anyone being disappointed.Being married to an avid collector, I realise how very important the condition of books is, and so I take care to pack all books securely to ensure that they arrive in the same state that they leave me. If you would like any further information about my listings or would like more images, please ask, and I will do my best to help. I send items in the UK by Royal Mail. Overseas buyers can opt for Ebay Global Shipping Programme. I regret that I do not send items abroad using other couriers. I post on Mondays and Thursdays. And, of course, I can combine postage. Please enquire.
