My African Journey
Hodder & Stoughton, London , nd (1909), paperback. This cheap edition produced in the style of “pulps”. A new setting with text in two columns. The highlight is the colour illustration of Churchill in pith helmet holding a rifle over a dead rhino ( obviously not an endangered species in 1908....) Printed on cheap paper which goes brown, paper wraps, 92 numbered pages plus ads at both ends. Far scarcer than first editions. Cohen A27.8 Colourful front cover clean and unmarked, a small nibble along lower edge. Spine is cracked and has lost the lower inch. Rear cover complete. Paper browned as usual. A superior collectable copy, far nicer than most I have seen. (A12b). Item #50075
