WELLS, H. G.
Kipps
The Story of a Simple Soul.
First edition, first impression, primary state of the ads dated 16.08.05. With Wells's fine contemporary presentation inscription to the half title page, "To W. W. Jacobs from H. G. Wells". An excellent association: Jacobs was a close contemporary of Wells, the highest earning writer of his day, and a superb technician.
Octavo. Original green cloth, decoration to upper board in blind, titles to upper board and spine gilt, top edge gilt. One gathering a little loose, contents spotted, boards rubbed. Very good.
