First Edition, First Printing of the author's fourth book, banned in the U.S. until 1961. This scarce copy, in publisher's red wraps, published in Paris in February 1939, is in simply very good condition considering its limited budget upon publication It retains the scarce errata slip tipped in preceding the FFEP. The price (175.00 fr)is clear on the lower rear cover, the the lower left corner of the rear cover bears a small tear, yet with all its faults this highly uncommon copy remains as complete as any we've seen. An exceedingly worthwhile literary collectible.
