MAUGHAM (W. Somerset).

The Moon and Sixpence.

First edition. 8vo. Original sage green cloth decorated in black. London, William Heinemann, 1919.

£350.00

First edition, published about 3 months before the American edition. This copy is from the second issue (the three issues differ only in ads): The first issue has four pages of ads which include three titles by Israel Zangwill, the second issue has those ads removed (by the publisher) with their stubs remaining, and the third issue has four different pages of ads which include twelve titles by Zangwill (and the original stubs still evident). Condition is just about fine, even given the deplorable quality of the paper used.; the only notable flaw is a tape repair on the edge of the rear free endpaper.
