[Charles Agvent]

Price reduced to $750 NET

CHEEVER, John. THE WAY SOME PEOPLE LIVE. New York: Random House, (1943). 
First Edition. Author's superb first book, a collection of short 
stories. Minor wrinkling and roughness to front endpaper, likely from 
the careful removal of a bookplate; otherwise, the book is fine and 
bright without any of the gutter darkening or spine wear typical to this 
title. The spine of the dustwrapper has minor wear to the heel with 
small chips at the head just extending to both panels. Other than minor 
corner wear and a short closed tear to the rear, the dustwrapper also is 
superior to the typical example. It is price-clipped but most of the 
dollar sign still remains. About Fine in a nicer than usual dustwrapper 
with absolutely no restoration. (#008463)        $1,250.00
