Printed John Lane the Bodely Head Limited London MCMXXVI Privately printed for Rarity Press New York, NY 1931

 Book measures 9-3/8" x 6-1/4" and has 218 pages. Book is not in good condition. There is heavy wear to the cover boards on the corners and edges, the spine has been taped. There are stains on a few pages, appears as if something (newspaper article) was inside the book for some time and later removed. Finally, there is an epilog listed in the index and a page called Epilog, but it is followed only by a few blank pages. I imagine this was a printing error as all the pages are there, they are just blank.
