Peacock Feathers

Grosset & Dunlap, 1928. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo. Phillips, Coles. Blue cloth boards with dark blue lettering under dust jacket with Coles Phillips painting (enlargement of the frontispiece.) A lovely copy that presents quite well. Temple Bailey was one of the most popular authors of her day, selling an estimated 3 million copies of her books, 2 of which were made into early films, including this title, which was filmed by Svend Gade in 1925. This book was likely published in 1928, as it references Bailey's "Silver Slippers" (1928) but not her 1928 Christmas publication or her 1929 novel. It does not reference the Gade photoplay.
