Cities of the Plain; Translated by C.K. Scott Moncrieff.

New York: Albert & Charles Boni, 1927. First American edition. 2 vols, 8vos, 352 & 384pp; three-quarter cream cloth and striped boards in black and silver. Just slightly rubbed, fine copies in the publisher's original two-piece matching cardboard slipcase, heavily worn at joints and printed label, but complete. Item #205153

One of 2000 numbered copies in the edition. The fifth part of "Remembrance of Things Past" in its first English translation. The heavy books were ill-matched to the rather flimsy slipcase, and are seldom found together with it.

Price: $200.00
