Description: Irving, John - The Water-Method Man - Random House: New York, 1972 - First Edition / First Printing - “First Edition” stated on the copyright page as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. Random House from this period will begin all their number lines with “2” but only first printings will retain the “First Edition” statement. The book has fait sunning to the edges and spine and some trivial edge wear but is better than most. The boards are straight, the cover design and spine are bright, the binding is square and firm and internally the text block is clean. The dust jacket is lightly soiled and edge worn but has a triangular chip to the upper edge which has a small tape mend to the rear. This example is a review copy with the original review slip as well as a promotional photograph of the author from Random House. While this title has always been uncommon, review copies border on being outright scarce. Thus a rather pleasing and scarce example of the beloved author’s second book. One of reportedly only 6,906 copies in the first printing. All books are offered with a full 30 day postage paid return policy. All books which are in dust jackets will be mailed with a clear archival dust jacket protector fitted. Shipping costs can be combined if multiple purchases are made. Items will be packaged and shipped within one business day unless otherwise noted. Please always feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
