Top edge yellow, 255[1]pp, with original unclipped dust jacket designed by John Minton and priced at 15s. net. Clean boards with just a hint of toning to the titles on the spine. Firm corners and just a hint of pushing to the foot of the spine. Internally clean, without name, inscription or bookplate and just a touch of toning and spotting to the fore edge of the text block. The dust jacket, which is now protected in a removable clear cover (not shown), and presents well. It is a little toned and marked in the white areas particularly on the rear panel. The spine tips and corners are a little rubbed with minimal loss and a couple of closed tears with associated light creasing. All in all a very good looking 1st Edition copy of this influential novel that focussed on homosexuality at a time when is was still illegal in the UK.
