AUSTEN, JANE. Northanger Abbey. Volume 1 (only, of 2). [xii], 195 pages. 12mo, original publisher's drab boards backed in purple cloth (faded to brown), lacking paper spine label, edgewear; text block almost entirely loose from spine, few binding threads and signatures loose, several leaves in first third heavily creased, few other margins creased; quite clean overall. Philadelphia: Carey & Lea, 1833

  • Notes: first american edition and one of 1250 copies. In need of some repair, but complete and in original cloth. All First American Editions of Austen are difficult to find. Later printings of this title did not occur until 1838, as a one-volume collected edition and, as a single volume in 1845. Gilson B5.
