THE SCARLET LETTER Nathaniel Hawthorne (1986, HC) Illustrated by Barry Moser 1st

Description: This is a beautifully illustrated hardcover first edition of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter.” Published in 1986 by Harcourt Trade Publishers, this literary classic tells the story of Hester Prynne, a woman living in 17th century Puritan Boston who is forced to wear a scarlet letter "A" as punishment for committing adultery. The book features 256 pages and measures 8 inches in length, 11 inches in height, and 1 inch in width, with a weight of 40 ounces. The illustrator, Barry Moser, did an incredible job of bringing the characters and setting to life through his wood-engraved illustrations. The book is in fair to good overall condition, with some wear and corner damage to the dust jacket and several “Not For Sale” stamps on the first and last pages and along the top edge of the book. There is also what appears to be a handwritten note of some kind from a library in 1993. Aside from those things, the inside pages of the book are clean and bright and this would be a great copy for reading and admiring the illustrations. I’ve tried to show all of the particulars I mentioned, and show the book from every angle in the photos. Please look closely at all of them to best judge condition for yourself, and let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for looking!
