White Fang
Jack London, 1906
LONDON, Jack (1876-1916). White Fang. New York: The Macmillan Co., 1906.

The first edition in rare dust jacket, Falktoft copy. Complementary to Call of the Wild, White Fang tells the adventures of a wolf-dog hybrid in the frozen North who eventually returns to civilization. The title-page is a cancel and printed on wove paper, identified by Woodbridge and BAL as the second issue, but Merle Johnson stated that no copies with integral title-page have been located. Only three other copies in dust jacket are located in the auction records of ABPC for the past 40 years. Sisson & Martens, p. 29ff.

Octavo. Illustrated with color frontispiece and plates by Charles Livingston Bull. (Two fore-margins chipped where roughly opened.) Publishers' advertisements at end. Original pictorial cloth, dust jacket (reinforcements to verso of spine panel, lower flap, and along edges and folds). Provenance: Henrik Falktoft (his sale, Christie's East, 17 April 2001, lot 135).
