Description: Drury, Allen - Advise and Consent - Doubleday: New York, 1959 - First Edition / First Printing / First Issue Dust Jacket - “First Printing” stated on the copyright page as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. First issue dust jacket with the correct “$5.75” price and sized correctly. “Let me see if I can state it for you this way, Senator,” he said slowly. “Under certain circumstances that may have existed in the past, the United States guided her actions by certain standards that had been proved to be valid for their time when those circumstances were found to exist. Now the circumstances may have changed and she may still be adhering to those standards although they no longer can be effectively or justifiably applied to the new circumstances which now confront us in which other standards may prove to be more beneficial than those of the past.” The book has staining, discoloration, mottling, and general dustiness. The boards are straight, the spine lettering is bright, binding is square and firm, and internally there is light soiling but no writing or other markings. The dust jacket has a few small stains, soiling, and rubbing but presents extremely well. This is the advanced issue that was sent to Booksellers prior to the commercial release. The notice remains on the front paste down as issued and is clean and presentable. A very solid and complete copy this novel which would go on to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Basis for the phenomenal 1962 Hollywood adaptation of the same title. Rather scarce and desirable as the ‘Advance Bookseller’s Copy’. All books are offered with a full 30 day postage paid return policy. All books which are in dust jackets will be mailed with a clear archival dust jacket protector fitted. Shipping costs can be combined if multiple purchases are made. Items will be packaged and shipped within one business day unless otherwise noted.
