Animal Farm By George Orwell First edition, first impression in first state dust jacket with Searchlight Books advertisement in blue to verso (Martin Secker & Warburg, 1945). Publisher's original green cloth with silver lettering to spine. Some mottling in places to covers; contents nice and clean and free from inscriptions; slight cracking to hinges, as is common. Original first state dust jacket with Searchlight Books advertisement printed in blue to verso; price-clipped; some abrasion here and there to hinges and upper panel fore-edge, though less rubbing to spine panel than is often seen; very small tear to top of upper panel hinge; shallow chipping to spine ends and corners with inconspicuous and neat tape reinforcement to spine verso and hinges; A very good copy indeed with no restoration.
