Despair, John Long, 1937, (Christie’s 17 April 2001)
I’ve found another jacketed copy of the 1937 John Long Despair buried deep in my online notes and jpgs. It was auctioned at Christie’s on 17 April 2001 and was knocked down at $18,800 (including buyer’s premium). I don’t have an image of the spine and Christie’s description doesn’t mention it. So I don’t know if it had a price of 7/6 or 3/6.
That’s three dust jackets and counting. In the meantime I’m waiting for Washington University in St. Louis to find its own copy. I am told that it is misshelved somewhere in its special collections.
