1937ref. BIBLIO-56881Macmillan and Co. Ltd London Sussex Edition 1937. From the limited edition of 525 sets of which 500 were for sale. Full russet Niger morocco handmade paper gilt top other edges untrimmed as issued royal 8vo. xiii 432 1 pp. The Sussex Edition is the finest edition of Kipling's works sumptuously produced and also containing his final thoughts on the text having been revised by Kipling in his last years. Kipling died in 1936 and the edition was published posthumously. Complete sets of the 35 volumes are rare and desirable : only 525 sets were produced and many of these were destroyed when the publisher's warehouse was bombed in 1941. Single volumes such as that offered here are in practice still harder to find : we have a handful only of such single volumes and this represents a possibly unrepeatable chance for one admirer of this early collection of his short stories which first appeared in 1898 to acquire it in the most desirable edition. The contents of this volume are: Signed by the author and numbered 271. Head of spine bumped and somewhat worn with minor wear also to corners three small dents to rear board some ubtrimmed edges slightly darkened or duststained partly unopened otherwise Very Good.
