STEINBECK, John. THE GRAPES OF WRATH. New York: The Viking Press
(1939).  First Edition. A towering novel of the twentieth century  and
winner  of the Pulitzer Prize. Made into a film starring Henry  Fonda.
The  book  is tight and clean with just a small amount of the  typical
darkening  to the endpapers. The dustwrapper maintains both the  price
and  the  all-important  "First Edition" statement.  There  is  just a
little  sunning  to the spine which has a not too pronounced  vertical
crease,  with very minor chipping at the head of the spine and to  the
corners.  There  are  a very few and very short closed  tears  to  the
front  panel, one with a crease at the feet of Tom Joad. About Fine in
a Very Good or better dustwrapper. Nice copy.                 $2500.00
