Easton Press LIFE ON THE MISSISSIPPI / Mark Twain DELUXE RARE LTD ED OF ONLY 300

Description: An extremely rare edition still sealed in the original plastic, this is PRISTINE with no corner bumps or dings - unopened, so we do not know the number, but limited to 300 (very, very small number) and very rare. This recreation of the 1883 first illustrated edition includes all vintage original artwork (over 300 illustrations) and comes in a beautiful custom clamshell case by Dominion Carton of Bristol, VA. It contains the St. Louis Hotel illustration on p.443 and the picture of Twain with the urn and flames on page 441; both I have read were amended in later editions. All the bells and whistles of a fine Easton Press Deluxe edition are included: ***** real gold embossing on the Italian cowhide leather imported by Cortina Leather of New York, New York, and gilded page ends to protect from dust and moisture***** acid neutral vanilla opaque archival paper by Finch Fine Papers, Glen Falls, New York to preserve book for future generations***** deluxe stitched binding by Kingsport Book, Churchill, Tennessee***** lithography by Falcon Press, Nashville, Tennessee***** ribbon markers***** beautifully designed end pages Mark Twain moved to Hannibal, Missouri at the age of four and would sit on the bluff and watch the riverboats pass by and observe the activity around the Mississippi River. In 1857 Twain embarked on a career as a riverboat pilot and worked a few years in that capacity until the Civil War broke out in 1861. He had many observations and experiences which he drew upon in the writing of Life on the Mississippi. Finding a sealed copy of this rare volume should be a challenging task. This will be very well wrapped and protected in double boxes and shipped with full insurance paid by seller. Shipping will be free and prompt with FedEx. Thank you for viewing! More beautiful books coming over the next few weeks.
