Lewis, C. S.
The Screwtape Letters (First American Edition, Eleanore M. Jewett's copy, in two dust jackets).
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1943.
First Edition.
Hardcover. First American Edition, first printing. Eleanore M. Jewett's bookplate on the upper front pastedown. Jewett was born in New York City in 1890, and during her college years found an interest in medieval culture. She wrote "The Hidden Treasure of Glaston," set around 1171, a story of the days of King Henry II, which received a Newbery Medal in 1947. Publisher's red cloth, with spine titles in black. Very Good+ in two dust jackets. Slight spine lean, brief rubbing to the rear board, light foxing. The two jackets are both Good or better, both with archival and cello tape repairs to the folds, small chips and closed tears at the extremities, moderate toning overall (commonly seen with this title). The outer jacket--the nicer of the two--has some chipping and creasing at the extremities, a small chip at the upper spine just obscuring the word "The" in the title, and is clipped at the upper front flap. The inner jacket has slightly wider flaps (but no other differences), a 2-inch chip at the lower rear panel just obscuring the second to last line of the panel's text, and a faint bruise to the front panel. A presentable copy of a Lewis highspot, and an interesting association. [Book #117712]. ( read more)
