Of Mice and Men~John Steinbeck-1937 First BOMC Edition withFacsimile Dust Jacket

Description: "Well,” said George, “we’ll have a big vegetable patch and a rabbit hutch and chickens. And when it rains in the winter, we’ll just say the hell with goin’ to work, and we’ll build up a fire in the stove and set around it an’ listen to the rain comin’ down on the roof.” Here we offer the first book club edition of the classic, canonical US novel, Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck, published in 1937 by Covici-Friede, New York. The book comes wrapped in a newly-remastered facsimile of the first edition dust jacket you can only get here, printed on coated heavyweight bond. The polymer coating on the paper ensures the brightest colors and sharpest prints, as the ink sits atop the paper rather than being absorbed into the fibers. Also included in your purchase is a copy of a collection of period newspaper reviews of Mice and Men. Little wear to boards (please see pics). Intact endpapers bear a period inscription. Binding is very tight and square; text is very bright and crisp. 186 pages; measures approximately 7.5 x 5.5-inches. The dust jacket is sleeved in ph-neutral Mylar and ready to slip into your collection. This classic first will make a wonderful addition to your collection or a very special gift. The American Library Association lists this title among its 100 most banned books. To see our entire shelf of banned books, please click HERE.
