Sobre este artículo
Toronto: William Briggs, 1908. Twelfth edition. Hardcover. Fine/very good. Small octavo, 106pp. Stated "twelfth edition," really the twelfth printing of the first edition. A fine, crisp copy in the publisher's green cloth, stamped in gilt. Gift inscription dated Christmas 1908 on the front free endpaper. In the extremely uncommon dust jacket, very good, with some chips along the edges, and some stains to the rear panel, but no repairs or sophistications. This collection of poems inspired by the Klondike Gold Rush was a major success, very quickly reprinted. Perhaps the two best-known poems herein are "The Shooting of Dan McGrew" and "The Cremation of Sam McGee." The dust jacket reprints a lengthy review from the Toronto Saturday Night magazine, which calls Service "The Canadian Kipling." We have seen very few early printings such as this one in a presentable dust jacket. Scarce thus.

We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
