By FROST, Robert
London: David Nutt, 1913. First edition, first issue, in the earliest binding [Crane's Binding A] of Frost's first regularly published book. Of approximately 1000 copies of the first edition of A Boy's Will, fewer than 350 copies were issued by Nutt, which went into bankruptcy after the First World War, and even fewer copies were bound in the first binding of bronze cloth before April 1, 1913; the balance of the copies that Nutt issued were not bound until four years later in different forms by a different binder. Crane A2. A very fine copy preserved in a half morocco folding box. Small 8vo, original bronze brown pebbled cloth. A very fine copy preserved in a half morocco folding box.
