All That Swagger by Miles Franklin. This was published in 1936 by the Bulletin as a first Australian edition. A feature of the book is that it is signed by Miles Franklin on the title page. It also comes with its dust-wrapper.
The cover is red cloth and the thick dust-wrapper is orange. Then spine is lighter than the front of the dust-wrapper and this seems to be the case with all the copies I have seen. There is some light soiling and wear on the top and bottom of the dust-wrapper which is otherwise in remarkably excellent condition.
The book has a previous owner's name on the free-front page along with some off-setting.
There is foxing on the text-block edges and on the preliinaries as seen in the photo of the title page.
Otherwise the pages are quite clean and the binding is tight.
Other than the foxing, the book is near-fine.
