1947ref. 26792New York:: Viking 1947. First Printing of the First Illustrated Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine bright unclipped dust jacket. This classic story of California paisanos living in Monterey is one of Steinbeck's most loved tales rich in characters and a story that is enchanting and universal.
