John Steinbeck, Cup of Gold, first edition with the dust jacket.

A superb first edition copy of Steinbeck’s rarest book. Only 1,537 copies of the first printing were issued and this one, with fresh cloth and the top-stain and jacket spine largely unfaded, is the best we have ever seen.

This edition is now sold. Our complete collection of the works of John Steinbeck can be found here.
