Best.-Nr. 06574New York: The Viking Press 1945. Advance Issue in Original Wrappers A Pre-Publication Steinbeck of Uncommon Survival STEINBECK John. Cannery Row. New York: The Viking Press 1945. Advance copy preceding the first edition. Octavo 7 3/8 x 4 3/4 inches; 187 x 121 mm. vi 208 1 advertisements 1 blank pp. Publisher's original blue printed wrappers front cover lettered in black. Housed in the original acetate jacket. Spine very slightly darkened minor wear at top of spine otherwise an exceptionally well-preserved near fine copy. A scarce and desirable advance issue of one of Steinbeck's most beloved Monterey novels issued in fragile paper wrappers for pre-publication distribution. Copies retaining the original acetate jacket are particularly uncommon as these ephemeral coverings were seldom preserved. Cannery Row stands among Steinbeck's most warmly regarded works - a loosely structured episodic portrait of life along the Monterey waterfront populated by a cast of unforgettable characters including Doc Mack and the boys. Blending humor pathos and philosophical reflection the novel captures both the camaraderie and quiet desperation of its Depression-era milieu. Advance copies of this title are rare in commerce especially in such superior condition and are keenly sought by collectors for their immediacy to publication and inherent fragility.

Near fine in a very good price-clipped dust jacket. Dust jacket design by Arthur Hawkins Jr. An exceptional example. John Steinbeck's picaresque novel set against the backdrop of the sardine canneries vacant lots flophouses and honky-tonks of Monterey California "was as complex as Steinbeck was. In a way it was a summation of all his conflicts and contradictions and all that he had learned. It was Steinbeck-funny and deadly serious all at the same time sentimental and coldly deterministic loving and satirical lyrical and yet very precise… Nowhere else in his work is his poetry so well controlled and nowhere else does he cut quite so deep" Benson 554-5.
