IT IS ONE OF THE MOST HIGHLY-PRIZED EDITIONS OF THIS GREAT CLASSIC. 🍍 NOT INCLUDED… 😃 The International Collectors Library was a book club series published by Doubleday Book & Music Clubs, Inc. from the late 1940’s through the late 1980’s.Generally, the books followed the 8-1/2″ x 5-3/4″ book size format. The binding designs were adapted based on old “Golden Age of Bookmaking” bindings, and made to look like leather-bound copies (leatherette). The bindings were embossed with 24K gold embellishments, and some copies had gilt edges (thin layer of gold leaf) applied. A sewn in satin ribbon marker was also added in most books. There were over 400 editions published in a variety of bindings. Some editions came with loose-leaf inserts that described the book club, the bindings and design styles, and a story synopsis of the book-in-hand.ABOUT THE BOOK: The Summing Up is a literary memoir by W. Somerset Maugham, written when he was 64 years old, first published in 1938. It covered his life from 1890 to 1938. Autobiographical and confessional, and yet not, it is one of the most highly regarded expressions of a personal credo; both a classic avowal of an author's ideas and his craft. CONDITION: Book is in AMAZING condition for its age (84 YEARS OLD) with only the slightest shelfwear to boards and a couple of cracks to the spine that have been repaired, something very common in these very old editions (SEE PICS FOR FURTHER DETAILS). NO ATTACHED BOOKPLATES, WRITING FROM PREVIOUS OWNER, ETC. It is a GORGEOUS EDITION. SHIPPING: FREE TO US ADDRESSES ONLY. INTERNATIONAL $ based on location. WE SHIP PRIORITY MAIL & PACK VERY WELL.
