Highlights
The Great Sermon Handicap by P.G. Wodehouse.
$1500
London, Hodder and Stoughton, [1933]. Duodecimo, neat contemporary inscription on rear free endpaper, very good in original gilt-lettered and decorated crimson boards with pictorial dustwrapper (minor foxing), marbled endpapers. First separate edition. McIlvaine, A49a. Charming small format edition (with dustwrapper in uncommonly good condition) of the quintessential Jeeves & Bertie story: '"Well, all I can say," he cried, "is that it's a bit thick! Preaching another man's sermon! Do you call that honest? Do you call that playing the game?"'
Power Without Glory a Novel in Three Parts by Frank J. Hardy "Ross Franklyn".
$440
Melbourne, Realist Printing and Publishing Co., 1950. Octavo, illustrations, name & date (August 1950) on front paste-down, original brick red cloth lettered in black on spine with Ambrose Dyson dustwrapper (bit chipped). First edition. With loosely inserted contemporary (folded foolscap folio) processed typescript key to the characters.
While the first edition had an unusually large print run, the dustwrapper – especially in good state – is uncommon. Cains, 64.
