Description: Life on the Mississippi Author: TWAIN, Mark Title: Life on the Mississippi Publication: Boston: James R. Osgood and Company, 1883 Edition: First Edition Description: First Edition. Hardcover. Octavo, 624pp., illustrated. About very good in the publisher's decorative brown cloth, stamped in black and gilt. Very mild wear to extremities, including a nick at the crown and a small gouge to the rear board. A somewhat shaken copy, with a few internal signatures loosened, but not detached. Inner hinges cracked, but holding. Owner's name in pencil on the front free endpaper. Despite these notable defects, still a reasonably nice example of the true first issue, with Twain's head engulfed in flames on the tailpiece on p. 441, and caption "The St. Louis Hotel" on p. 443. Already a presentable copy, and one that might benefit from the services of a binder who could re-sew the page block through the original stab holes. BAL 3411. Very good-.
