About This Item
New York: Grosset & Dunlap. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine Minus/Very Good. 8vo., 374pp. Sharp First PhotoPlay Edition. Only original 1928 Frederick A. Stokes publication date listed but circa 1931 to coincide with the release of the RKO Radio Picture starring Frank McCormick, Ralph Forbes and Lester Vail. Bound in light blue cloth with titles in navy on front board and spine. Illustrated with seven stills from the Square, tight and clean throughout with bookplate on front paste-down and small, neat signature on front end-paper. Little if any toning. Small wrinkle in the cloth of the front board. Some softness to spine ends. Very attractive unclipped, though unpriced, wrap-around illustrated dust-jacket , has tiny nicks and rubbing to front fold. Spine mildly toned. A bit of surface rubbing to the rear panel and a tiny closed edge-tear. Still fresh and bright. A very pretty collectable copy and fairly uncommon in nice condition.
