An Old Sweetheart of Mine
Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merrill, 1902.
Sold
Hardcover. First edition thus, with illustrations by Howard Chandler Christy and designed by Virginia Keep. Contemporary gift inscription on the half-title, still a lovely, fine copy in fine, Christy-illustrated dustwrapper with one short tear, in publisher issued, Christy-illustrated gift box, which is attractive and presentable, but which has been reinforced along the outer edges. Someone, presumably the original purchaser, has elaborately tied a ribbon around the front board, completely and easily removable, but which has done no harm, so we have left it as found. A beautiful copy.
