Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson - Rand McNally & Company Rare Early Edition

$450.00
Robert Louis Stevenson's famous and fabulous tale, Treasure Island, published by Rand McNally & Company in their Alpha Library series. This is an undated edition, but the previous and only owner wrote their name and date in the front, May 1901.

This copy has emerald green cloth boards with embossed floral details around the edge of the front, and framing the title which is in gilt letters. The binding is a bit loose, but all the pages are intact. The spine has the title, author, and publisher written in gold letters too, but they are not as bright as the front. They are readable.

I have tried to find information about this edition, but have come up with nothing. It is not as early as the Cassell first editions, but it is older than some of the other American editions published in the early 20th century.

Of note: the words "dead mans chest" are not capitalized on pages 6 and 10. Other signals of a first edition that correspond to known pages are not obvious due to the difference in pagination.
