To Kill a Mockingbird
By Harper Lee
First UK edition, first impression (William Heinemann Ltd, 1960). Attractive jacket design by Fratini.
Publisher’s original burgundy cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Contents beautifully clean aside from a previous owner name to front endpaper, boards and edges clean and free from marks or foxing. The original and unclipped dust jacket has a couple of very small chips and nicks to spine ends with a little rubbing to corners and a hint of the usual fading to the spine panel lettering. An excellent, near fine copy.
