Description: Here we offer the 2010 heirloom-quality facsimile reproduction of the 1885 first US edition of the classic American novel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain, published by Charles Webster and Company, New York, and densely illustrated with E.W. Kemble's drawings--here recreated in precise detail by Charles Winthrop & Sons. Huck Finn was an extravagant book when published, and this is the highest quality facsimile available: large, colorful and well-made with the best quality pulp and cloth, gilt edges all the way around (to keep dust out), gilt and ink impressed binding, and precisely detailed in its reproduction. This wonderful book comes with bonus ephemera: a modern reproduction of an actual pictorial newspaper ad from the February 27, 1885 Baltimore American advertising a reading by Twain and the novelist George Cable, known as the first modern Southern writer; collector's notes on the edition; and a modern copy of a collection of fascinating period newspaper ads, reviews, and articles concerning Twain.
