Booth Tarkington - Alice Adams - 1st 1st First STATE w/ Error

Description: Tarkington, Booth - Alice Adams - Doubleday Page & Co: New York, 1921 - First Edition / First Printing / First State - Matching dates present on the title and copyright page with no mention of later printings as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. First state with “you” / “why” inverted on page 419, line 14. The book has light spotting, edge wear with rubbing, and splitting at the front gutter. The boards remain fairly straight, the lettering on the front and spine is dark and legible, the binding is square and firm, and internally there is no writing or markings but there is offsetting on two pages from an old newspaper clipping. All of the illustrations are present and are still firmly attached. A solid example of this important Tarkington title. Winner of the 1922 Pulitzer Prize. This novel has been twice adapted into films— first as a silent film in 1923 and then more famously in 1935 with Katharine Hepburn starring as the titular Alice.
