The Catcher in the Rye - 1st Edition - JULY 1951- 3RD PRINTING - J.D. Salinger

Description: The Catcher in the RyeSALINGER, J. D. Publisher: Little, Brown and CompanyLocation: Boston, MADate: 1951Binding: Octavo, original full bound black cloth with gilt lettering. Edition: First EditionPrinting: 3rd Printing Description: First Edition, Third Printing of J. D. Salinger's masterpiece, The Catcher in the Rye. A spectacular early printing issued during the book's first month of publication in July, 1951. A scarce and very nice example. Since his debut in 1951 as The Catcher In the Rye, Holden Caulfield has been synonymous with "cynical adolescent." Holden narrates the story of a couple of days in his sixteen-year-old life, just after he's been expelled from prep school, in a slang that sounds edgy even today and keeps this novel on banned book lists. It begins, "If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. In the first place, that stuff bores me, and in the second place, my parents would have about two hemorrhages apiece if I told anything pretty personal about them." Condition:Very Good Book presenting with deep black full bound cloth boards. Binding slightly loose with very minimal slant. Wear to head and foot of spine with moderate fading of lettering on spine. Front and rear boards show dulled spotting typical to this title. Prior owner's name on top right of first free page with very light signs of use on bottom of same and front pastedown.; otherwise, interior is bright and unmarked with dark, crisp text.
