1st printing The Stone Diaries by Carol Shields!! Excellent! Pulitzer Prize !!

Description: Here is a beautiful collectible copy of Carol Shields best known work and winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. This is The Stone Diaries and is a first American edition as I believe the very first edition was published in Canada. Now let me first begin by saying that regardless of the photos of the inner boards and endpapers, I know that this copy is NOT an ex library copy. This copy is in excellent condition and has not been in public circulation. With the popularity of this title and it’s being awarded the Pulitzer, if this copy was in the public library system there would be signs of wear and handling, stamps and or labels affixed to the spine, or at least some indication of placement in a public library. This copy is truly beautiful. The binding is square and tight and immaculate throughout ( excluding the front endpaper and inner boards ). The tan boards are extremely clean and the cream-colored speckled cloth spine and gold gilt lettering and decor are pristine as shown. Ex library and pristine are two words that are never used in the same description of a book. The spine ends are in excellent condition as well as three of the four corners. The lower rear board corner does have some wear also as shown in the photos provided. The inner boards do have evidence that this dust jacket was at one time glued on. And the first free endpaper does have large glue residue. The dust jacket is beautiful in and of itself also as the posted images attest to. On the reverse side of the flaps is also glue residue. But this jacket is sharp. The only issue is at the spine end which is very minimal indeed and a small scratch across the middle of the front panel. This copy is extremely beautiful and cannot have been in public circulation. Please see all pics and ask any questions you may have. I purchased this copy feeling exactly this way and has been on my library shelves ever since. And please check out my 100% positive seller feedback!!! Thanks for looking. And I didn’t even mention the deckled edges!!!
