1st Edition Inscribed. by Author. Rare First American Edition inscribed by the author on front free endpaper "For Mrs. Little, V. Sackville-West Montreal March 10th 1933" From our Vita Sackville-West Collection. There would be six print runs in the first three years of its publication aided in part by Vita Sackville-West winning the Hawthornden Prize for Literature. 8vo. 107 pp.7 1/4" x 5 1/4" With mylar protection - the original brown cloth covered boards, with an inlay of the dust jacket woodcut illustration designed by George Plank stamped on the front board cover as well as the spine. A slight fading on the front as per the photos. Beige and black dust jacket in very good condition featuring the bold woodcut by GEORGE PLANK. Slight browning and a few chips and cuts to the spine. The DJ has the $2.00 price and stamped with the Hawthornden Prize across the spine. Published by Doran on 16 January 1927 at $1.50 in 500 copies bought from William Heinemann with DJ. Reissued at $2.00, also printed by Heinemann in the same from as the first edition but containing the correction incorporated by Windmill Press. The bibliography on the back panel of the DJ ends with Sissinghurst where as the front flap mentions Family History so the reissue was probably 1933. [Cross & Ravenscroft-Hulme A13c] Quite a beautiful and of course, a unique addition for any serious VSW Collector. Codice articolo 33198
