Exceptionally scarce ''double review'' first printing dustjacket and book ''To Kill a Mockingbird'' by Harper Lee. Philadelphia & New York: J.B. Lippincott Company: 1960. First edition includes the scarce first issue dustjacket with two reviews on the back flap by Shirley Ann Grau and Phyllis McGinley, in addition to the standard first edition frontflap quote from her long-time neighbor and friend, Truman Capote. Harper Lee's portrayal of life in a small Alabama town captured the essence of the South and became an instant American classic. The 8.25'' x 5.5'' volume with brown boards and green backstrip is housed in a custom leather case. Minor soiling to the page edges and boards with some fading to backstrip. Price-clipped dustjacket shows overall edgewear. Overall very good plus condition.
