Sobre este item
This 1897 first edition, second impression of Dracula, by Bram Stoker, is a rare find in its original, unrestored condition. Unlike most copies, which have been repaired or rebound, this edition has avoided alterations by restorers. While other first editions may cost double or nearly triple the price, this first edition, second impression is an impressive addition to any collection at this price point and as said rare to find in such condition.
Description and Condition:
First edition, second impression, with the 1 page "The Shoulder of Shasta" final ad leaf integral to the text, bound in the publisher's original red stamped yellow cloth. Mild general overall handling, head and foot of spine fine, outer hinges fine, back corners still square, inner hinges just starting, ding to the head of spine affecting the first 2 letters in Dracula, 2 short closed tears to text, small red ownership stamp to front blank endleaf and half title otherwise internally clean and bright, housed in a red morocco backed clamshell slipcase.
