First edition first state with the sheets with the block bulking to 1 1/8” and with frontispiece facsimile signature measuring 1 and 7/16s inches wide. Title-page in red and black frontispiece portrait of Twain from photograph above printed signature and with delightful illustrations in the margins of nearly every page. 8vo publisher’s original rust-colored cloth decorated extensively in gilt and black on the upper cover and spine. 432 pp. A fine and very handsome copy in the publisher's original binding state. The text-block is clean and fresh the binding bright and beautifully preserved. A VERY PLEASING COPY IN PUBLISHER'S ORIGINAL DECORATED BINDING OF THE FIRST EDITION OF TWAIN’S BITING YET COMEDIC COMMENTARY ON SLAVERY AND THE ROLE OF RACE IN AMERICAN SOCIETY. It is a short novel featuring the brilliantly crafted character Roxanna a mulatto slave who suffers dire consequences after switching her infant son with her master’s baby and the clever Pudd’nhead Wilson an ostracized small-town lawyer. Twain’s darkly comic masterpiece is a provocative exploration of slavery and miscegenation. In the words of Langston Hughes “Mark Twain in his presentation of Negroes as human beings stands head and shoulders above the other Southern writers of his times.” Included in the publication is Those Extraordinary Twins the slapstick and irrelevant story that evolved into ‘Pudd’nhead Wilson’. By including it the publisher provided us with a fascinating view of the author’s process. American Publishing Co hardcover
