The Beautiful and Damned
first edition Cloth
1922 · New York
by F. Scott Fitzgerald
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1922. Cloth. Near Fine. A lovely copy of the 1922 correct 1st edition (lacking the Scribner colophon at the copyright page). Surprisingly clean, tight and Near Fine in its dark-green cloth, with blindstamped titling to the front panel and strong, bright gilt-titling along the spine. Internally, clean as could be, with no writing or markings to speak of. A very presentable, significantly above average copy of Fitzgerald's 2nd published novel, preceding "The Great Gatsby" by 3 years. (Inventory #: 18698)
