Norfolk, CT: New Directions, 1941. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good +. Rockwell Kent. An impressive copy of this 1941 Rockwell Kent-illustrated edition, #46 OF ONLY 100 COPIES SIGNED BY KENT AT THE LIMITATION. Tight and Near Fine to Fine in a crisp, price-intact ($3.50), VG+ dustjacket, with very light chipping at the spine crown and very light wear along the rear panel's outer hinge (with mild darkening and several small closed tears). Still though, handsome and very presentable. Thick quarto, dual text, with the original German on each verso and the newly-translated English (by C.F. Mac Intyre) on each facing recto. Rockwell Kent's incomparable woodcuts beautifully complementing Faust's dramatic text.
