GOODCHILD, George. Jack O'Lantern
GOODCHILD, George. Jack O’Lantern. London: Newnes. n.d. c. 1929. 8vo. Early edition. Originally published by Hodder and Stoughton. Publisher’s green cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the wonderful dust jacket designed by Marc Stone. A very good copy, the cloth clean, gently bumped to some edges, the binding tight and gently rolled. The textblock with some spots to edges, prelims and then some light sporadic foxing in places. The dust jacket priced at 2/6 net to spine, some rubbing, light nicks and bumps to corners and tips, some other rubbing, with reinforcements to top edge verso.
A nice and early edition in the Newness reprint editions. The basis of the 1929 Walter Forde film of the same name. Scarce.
