Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell First Edition, First Printing $2600.00
Martin Secker & Warburg, London, 1949. A very good first edition with some lightening to the top and bottom of the boards with no owner’s signatures, bookplates or other markings whatsoever. The spine is slanted and the dust jacket is fair with the chipping along the top as shown in the pictures. The dust jacket flaps are very good with no chipping and the jacket is not price clipped. The dust jacket is green which has no priority with the red dust jacket seen on some true first editions of this masterpiece with epic timing in the 2020s as technology takes control. One of the world’s finest novels whose vision for the future becoming reality.
