shelf wear to tips, corners and edges of the book, covers rubbed, spine faded-nearly illegible, top edge dusty; no jacket, clean and unmarked. First printing, same date with colophon. Black cloth, gilt titles. In his introduction to the 1950 Modern Library edition, Maugham had this to say, "I am willing enough to agree with common opinion that Of Human Bondage is my best work... But the book I like best is Cakes and Ale ... because in its pages lives for me again the woman with the lovely smile who was the model for Rosie Driffield." Most items ship with tracking numbers and (generally over $15.00) jacket protectors if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.
