Sobre este artículo
London: Arthur L. Humphreys, 1906. First English Edition (Cohen A18.1) (Woods A9). Softcover. Very Good. 8vo (136 pages [i-iv] v-ix [x-xii] xiii-xv [xvi] 1-118 [119-120]). This is, without question, the rarest Churchill first edition available today; an original copy of the First edition in its original card wraps, as issued. The front cover here has triangular losses at each corner, as well as some surface chipping, but it is attached and intact. The front cover has also darkened with age and there is a faint pencil marking visible near the publisher’s name. The spine has fragmented but is entirely present. Though published blank, the spinehas been hand-lettered in now-faded ink: “Free Trade. Churchill, M.P.” The rear cover (which advertises MR. BRODRICK’S ARMY) is brighter and less worn. The binding is strong and the contents are fine, clean and unfoxed. The title page is stamped: “Reference Dept —The National Union — 10 Apr 1906.” The book is preserved in a simple blue cloth chemise with leather spine label. It is the most precious of Churchillian prizes.
