GRAHAM GREENE : The Old School. Essays by Divers Hands. Edited by Graham Greene

Jonathan Cape, London, 1934

First Edition (first printing) of this anthology of eighteen accounts of public schooling. 8vo. 256pp. Black cloth lettered in blue at the spine and upper board. Edges lightly spotted, with a touch of marking to the cloth. A dash of spotting to the title page, and with some further occasional mostly marginal spotting. Contemporary date inked to the head of the front free endpaper, beneath a small area of Tip-Ex'd erasure. Very good but lacking the fugitive dust wrapper. A two-page preface by the editor precedes contributions by Anthony Powell, W.H.Auden, H.E.Bates, Stephen Spender, Elizabeth Bowen, Walter Greenwood, L.P.Hartley, William Plomer, Derek Verschoyle, Antonia White, and Greene himself (a ten-page essay, 'The Last Word', about his Berkhamsted schooling). The first book edited by Greene, of which 1,517 copies were printed. Wobbe A7.. Book. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: No Jacket
