Erstausgabe
First Edition. First edition, first printing, first issue without ads at rear. [vi], 533 pp. with frontispiece and seven illustrated plates. Bound in publisher's red ribbed cloth lettered in gilt. Near Fine with slight lean to binding; slight darkening to spine and mottling to cloth. Former owner gift inscription to front paste down and slight perfume odor to pages. In the scarce original dust jacket in impressive condition, light edge wear and spine darkening, Very Good+ with partial splits to the spine joints and a mostly closed tear at the top end of the front spine joint. Generally bright and attractive, putting the example of the jacket reproduced in Garrison to shame. A suppressed issue of the jacket with a line stating "for the first time, the veil has been lifted from New York society" is mentioned by Wharton's biographer R.W.B. Lewis (p. 151); Wharton had the jacket changed and the offending line deleted before the book was formally issued; it was unseen by Garrison and is not present on this example.A critical and commercial success as well as a masterpiece of literature, as the publisher correctly predicted on the dust jacket.

Buch Erstausgabe
First edition, first issue with Scribner's seal to copyright page and no advertisements in the rear; 8vo; title-page printed in red and black, 8 full-page illustrations by A. B. Wenzell, a few minor spots to upper edge of frontispiece and corresponding tissue-guard and lower marginal corner of last 3 leaves, otherwise fine; publisher's red cloth, lettered in gilt, top edge gilt and others untrimmed, as published, fading to spine, mild spotting to ednpapers and upper hinge (internal) cracked but firm, in all a bright crisp copy. Edith Wharton is famous for having written novels that lift the lid on the society in which she lived. The House of Mirth, her second novel, shocked the New York society it so deftly chronicles, portraying the moral, social and economic restraints on a woman who dared to claim the privileges of marriage without assuming the responsibilities. This work brought Wharton international recognition.
