1931ref. bps,goodearthVariantPLEASE SEE PHOTOS. The true 1st/1st has orange stain top125 review copies has publishing copyright page 1st Ed 2nd state has publishing copyright pagemost people call this one the true 1st brown top stainabout 3000 1st Ed 3rd statepeople call this the 2nd state has just John Day Company copyright page and green stain top. John Day talked about the difference between the so called 1st state then correcting the copyright page and staining the top green. Well he did not KNOW what he was talking about or the printing got it wrong because this one has the Publishing on the copyright date with the Green stain instead of brown Making this the only one I have seenand the other collectors I talked with have not seen it either. I have decent offers but this is one of a kindmore rare than the 125 true first editions which in any condition bring $2500 for ones falling apart. So I think $5k is a good point. If I find others I will drop the priceof course I will buy them too. JOHN DAY hardcover
