Description: The Fountainheadby Ayn Rand First edition (stated) Publisher and Year: Indianapolis & New York: The Bobbs-Merrill Company, 1943. -Edition: This is the true first edition, first printing (per the "First Edition" statement on the copyright page), second issue green cloth. Later printings do not say first edition. The publisher began producing the first printing in red cloth (first issue) but switched to green cloth (second issue) in the middle of the print run, likely due to wartime material scarcity. One of 12,000. Bibliographic reference: Perinn A3a.-Condition: Green cloth, lettered in gilt, 8.5" x 5.5". The green cloth remains vibrant. The covers show some minor rubbing. Tips pushed. Sturdy binding, although the text block sits convex, a common fault of square back spines. Previous owner's bookplate on the front pastedown. Free and clear of writing and underlining. A well-preserved example.- “My dear fellow, who will let you?”“That’s not the point. The point is, who will stop me?” ― Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead-Inventory ID: 399 - 232 - 771
