Description
LONDON, Jack (1876-1916). White Fang. New York: The Macmillan Company, 1906.
8vo. Half-title; 8 color-printed plates by Charles Livingston Bull. Original grey pictorial cloth stamped in white and black, spine gilt-lettered (some very slight rubbing to corners, tiny bump on bottom edge of upper cover); quarter morocco folding case. Provenance: A. M. S. (signature, 1907).
FIRST EDITION, with the title-page a cancel on laid paper. Woodbridge and BAL identify copies with the cancel title-page as the second issue, though Merle Johnson states he knows of no copies with an integral title-page.
