HARDY, Thomas. A PAIR OF BLUE EYES. New York: Henry Holt and Company, 
1873. First American Edition. Issued in the Leisure Hour Series. 
Publisher's decorated cloth with the ads dated 4 October 1873. Hardy's 
third novel and the first published under his own name. Fraying to spine 
tips. The light-colored cloth is foxed and soiled. The first sentence of 
most of the chapters have a pencil notation that seems to be the 
reader's response to the chapter titles. Very Good and quite uncommon. 
(#008073)        $1,000
