London, Stanley Paul, 1926. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A very good copy. In the rare dustjacket. A Superman novel, who ends up destroying himself with a force field he invented. Presumed first state jacket, though there's no printed price so it's hard to tell. A few chips and some lengthy closed tears, along with some general handling wear. The book's faded to the spine suggesting a marriage. Translated from the French by P.O. Crowhurst [11038, Hyraxia Books].
