This Side of Paradise, 1920 First Edition, F.Scott Fitzgerald, Scribner's

Description: I don't want to repeat my innocence. I want the pleasure of losing it again. Here we offer the first edition, stated 8th printing, of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic, This Side of Paradise, published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, in 1920. The book comes with a very special facsimile of the first edition dust jacket you can only get here, digitally-remastered and 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. Boards are bumped and lightly soiled with the remnants of a library number on the spine (please see pics). Facsimile bookplate on front interior pastedown. Intact endpages. A couple small library-related rubber stamp impressions on preliminary pages. Binding is very tight and square. Text is very clean, bright, and crisp. Measures approximately 8 x 5-inches. 305 pages. Dust jacket comes sleeved in ph-neutral Mylar and ready to slip into your collection. This canonical first will make a wonderful addition to your collection or a very special gift.
