Lot Description
[Literature] Hilton, James Good-bye, Mr. Chips
Boston: Little, Brown, and Company, 1934. First edition, review copy with stiff card laid in. 8vo. Original oatmeal cloth, stamped in blue; all edges trimmed; unclipped dust-jacket with $1.25 on front flap and with a few short closed tears in top edge. A very good copy.
Made into two charming films--first in 1939 with Robert Donat as Mr. Chips then again as a musical in 1969 with Peter O'Toole reprising the role.
From the library of bibliophile and long-standing Grolier Club member David Allen Fraser (1911-2003).
