HOWELLS, William Dean [HOWELLS, W. D.]. THE MOUSE-TRAP AND OTHER FARCES. 
New York: Harper and Brothers, 1889. First Edition. Original red cloth. 
BAL 9642. Illustrated with eight plates. A fine presentation copy 
INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author to "Joanna/from her brother,/W.D. 
Howells." We are not sure who the recipient is as Howells, one of eight 
children, did not have a sister named Joanna. He did have a brother 
named John, but he died in 1864. Slight hinge crack. Spine sunned and a 
little soiled. Very Good. (#003213)        $1,000
