Beschreibung
12mo (7 1/4" x 4 7/8"), gray cloth with black labels & gold lettering on spine and ruling on cover, archival polyester-protected pictorial dust jacket (not clipped) with B&W woodcut of a village by Galdone, with a brief Introduction by Thomas Hardy; publisher's gray topstain; gray-patterned Running Torchbearer ML endpapers; vii, [vii] + 503 pages. Thomas Hardy OM (1840 - 1928) was an English novelist and poet. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, especially William Wordsworth. He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially the declining status of rural people in Britain, such as those from his native South West England. SCARCE title in such a VG dust jacket. Here the cloth and contents are NF-to-Fine with No previous owner's marks. The dust jacket is unclipped, bright, and quite clean, but with a bit of edgewear and a 3/8" chip from the lower portion of the dj's spine. Overall, this is a VG copy of the handy Modern Library edition often much abused by readers. Toledano's Guide (p.176) places the inside dust jacket number of "408" as about 1962. This is, therefore, an early reprint of the 1951 edition. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 7463

Anbieterinformationen
We are professional booksellers, autograph dealers, and antiquarians (members of the ILAB & ABAA) who began in business in 1969. We pride ourselves on providing books, autographs, art, and artifacts in the Best Available Condition (typically Fine, Very interesting, Scarce, or Unusual items).
Our descriptions strive to be scrupulously accurate. Whenever possible, we detail flaws, include photographs of stock listed (rather than "stock photos"), and provide some background on the authors, creators...
Mehr InformationAll our books and items are carefully packed. They are usually shipped in Manilla padded-envelopes or sturdy boxes with additional bubble wrap, styrofoam "popcorn," or other protective layers. We strive to ship within 24 hours of receiving orders--allowing extra time for weekends or holidays.
Books shipped within the United States are usually shipped via USPS Media Mail. Postal charges for Media Mail typically run from $3.17 to around $5. When site-posted charges--usually $4.95--exceed actual USPS charges, any overage helps to defray our packaging and shipping costs.
Those books requiring extra-swift transport or -care are often shipped via USPS Priority Mail. Postage charges usually average $13.50 for up to precisely 2 pounds, but rapidly escalate thus possibly making it necessary to contact clients.
Autographs & manuscripts, art & artifacts are usually shipped in stout boxes with padding and reinforcement. Because Media Mail rates do not then apply, we normally use USPS Priority mail, but also ship via UPS and FedEx. Extra charges for insurance are often necessary for valuable items.
Overseas' shipments (as to Europe) weighing with packaging Not more than 2 pounds usually incur postage charges of between $13.50 to $25. Those between 2 - 4 pounds average around $35. Packages of more than 4 pounds usually need to be quoted.
