[1ST ED] Riders of the Purple Sage
First edition of Grey's most popular novel--"Perhaps the most famous Western of all." With "Published January 1912" on copyright page and same date in Roman numerals on title page; does not have a list of Grey's previous books in a boxed border on copyright page. Hardcover 8vo, 334 pages with four black and white plates including tissue guard over frontispiece. Lacking the extremely scarce dust jacket but with a near fine color plate on front cover. Slight lean to spine. Light bumping and chipping to boards. Light toning to spine, with some fraying to ends. A few small impressions to rear board. A fresh and lovely copy of this iconic piece of Americana that presumably hits all the first edition first state points.
