With the 1ssue point on page 419, 30,000 copies, but I discovered about 20 years ago there are different states within that error printing. It deals with the copyright date. I discovered there are 3 different states. 1921 regular, "flying 192 is higher than the 1, and 92 is higher with milled corners(i sold both of those and lost 1). This book has the "flying" 192 as seen in the photos. I have seen 4 copies so far of this error but I do not know how many were published or how rare, but it is a variant needed by all who collect this title. The book itself has no repairs done to keep it original, has a slight lean due to slight looseness. Color, etc is same as 1st issue(size as well). Rubbing to the edges, bumped bottom front corner, spine ends has wear minute tears and wear to the corners and bottom edge(slightly). See photos for the details, need more just ask.

SEE PHOTOS FOR DETAILS. Has all the 1st stste issue points, pg 419 red square Title page and matching 1921 dates. This one is a bit dirty on page ends and light foxing and finger smudges inside covers and a few pages. My cheapest 1st Ed of this title(I have a few) just search and find the one for you.. All have photos.

PLEASE SEE PHOTOS, 3rd Edition stated on the DJ front flap. minor bruising spine ends and DJ has soiling minor chipping. Scarce in DJ.

Special edition to celebrate the merger of Doubleday and Doran Publishing houses. It is signed by Fred N. Doubleday(author and Publisher) George H. Doran(author and Publisher) and Booth Tarkington(author). Rare for the 2 publishers signatures and nice they are. The covers are soiled but inside is Near Fine.

Please see photos. 1st leaf has the long inscription/Signature/Place and Date. Near fine, has brusied spine ends because no DJ, and minor rubbing to extreme edges a marker can fix.
One by One Edition, copyright has 1922, title page has 1937 and the inscription has June 1938 so no idea what printing.

PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR DETAILS. REALLY NICE COPY AND ITS DUSTJACKET.

1918 on main title page and copyright page(a)issue points(Merle Johnson 4th Ed-pg490),(b).white paper vs. mixed or Cheaper paper.(c)measuring 1 1/8 inch across instead of the 1 inch of the cheap stuff...TRUE 1st EDITION 1st State(printing)..laid in and ready to be glued there A SIGNED PAGE tight,maybe read once.The covers are MEDIUM redish brown(not red or dk brown),the trick to 1st state of the book is the measurement across the end pages,covers can be between light brown and maroon or dark brown.
