FITZGERALD, F. SCOTT. Tales of the Jazz Age. 8vo, publisher's dark bluish-green cloth, stamped in gilt and blind, bright and clean; first issue dust jacket, two 1-inch closed tears to back panel, spine panel head with short chips just touching a few letters, short nicks to fold corners, scattered shallow abrading along extremities and folds, light soiling; endpapers toned, else clean internally. New York: Scribner's, 1922
first edition, first issue dust jacket, apparently later (second or third) printing. With "and" on page 232, line 6, and no type batter throughout. "Bruccoli notes that the publisher's records shows three printings of this work in 1922. These were not identified by the publisher and have not been differentiated by bibliographic tests. One textual revision has been discovered by machine collation: page 232, line 6 [see above] ... but it has not been determined whether the plate change occured between the first and second printings or between the second and third printings" (Harmon, p. 8). In unrestored, scarce dust jacket. Bruccoli A9.1.a.
