8vo. Publisher’s red cloth lettered and decorated in black, in the illustrated dust-jacket by James Montgomery Flagg with printed price of $2.00 to front flap; pp. [4], 321, [3 (blank)]; a little toning to jacket with a few small nicks to extremities, small chip to front fold, and creasing to spine ends of jacket with corresponding pushing to cloth, light spotting to edges of textblock; light marginal spotting to p. 1; very good.
First US edition in book form, first printing, the second full-length novel featuring the hapless Bertie Wooster and his valet Jeeves.

The novel was first serialised in America in The Saturday Evening Post between 23 December 1933 and 27 January 1934, followed by its serialisation in the UK in The Grand Magazine from April to September 1934.
