E. B. White, Stuart Little. Harper & Brothers, New York & London, 1945. First Edition, First Printing, in the scarce Harper first‑state dust jacket priced at $2.00. White’s first book for children, illustrated throughout with Garth Williams’s iconic pen‑and‑ink drawings.
 
8vo. 131pp - A very good copy in a very good or better unclipped jacket. Harper’s original tan pictorial cloth stamped in green and white, with green pictorial endpapers; Corners and spine tips lightly bumped and rubbed, a small mark to the lower front cover, ex‑libris label to the half‑title, and a neat New Mexico bookstore label to the rear pastedown. The jacket is bright and attractive, with light wear to folds and spine tips, gentle sunning to the spine, and mild toning to the rear panel.
 
A charming and presentable first printing of White’s beloved classic, increasingly hard to find in collectible condition with the original $2.00 jacket.
