Lee, Harper

To Kill a Mockingbird. London: Heinemann, 1960

8vo (195 x 126 mm). Original drab printed wrappers, with "Not forꦐ Sale" printed at the foot of the cover; wrapper with a stain🌄 to the head of the cover and light creasing, some soiling and wear to edges. Housed in an ochre clamshell box.

An uncorrected proof of this essential piece of American literature. To Kill a Mockingbird quickly became a classic of American literature and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1961. Its place in pop culture was strengthened by the enormous success of the 1962 film adaptation. Rare: Very few examples of uncorrected proofs have 🅰appeared on the market.
