RARE 1st EDITION 1931 RIVER GIRL w/ SCARCE DUST JACKET HOMER CROY HARPER BROS

Rare Copy of “River Girl” with Scarce Dust Jacket. Written by Homer Croy. Published by Harper Brothers – Stated First Edition on Copyright Page with Harper Dating Code for November, 1930. 1931 also on the Title Page. 320 Pages.Croy was an American Author and occasional Screenwriter who wrote both Fiction and Non-Fiction about life in the Midwest. Several popular Biographies include Books on the outlaw Jesse James, humorist Will Rogers and film director D.W. Griffith. His most famous Book was the novel They Had to See Paris (1926) which was made into a Movie in 1929 starring Will Rogers.I’m a little puzzled by the fact there is no price printed on the Dust Jacket. It’s possible – though I think unlikely – this is a Book Club Edition though there is no impression of any sort on the back board. Plus, this Book was apparently not produced in any great quantity as it’s so rare and unrecognized, so it would seem unlikely that a book club would have wanted to publish it. Book Clubs were first established in 1926 (Book-of-the-Month Club) and 1927 (The Literary Guild) so this would be an early one if it is. Regardless, it’s an extremely rare find.The Book itself is in good condition. Pages are clean and without tears or signs of usage. Binding is tight. The Blue Cloth Boards are in nice condition thought there is a small dent along the front fore-edge and the Spine is sunned. There is also some slight sunning to the edges.The extremely scarce Dust Jacket is intact though it does show significant chipping and tears with a small piece missing along the bottom front. Also some generalized soiling. Track Page Views WithAuctiva’s FREE Counter
