Vintage hardcover copy of Dinner at Antoine's by Frances Parkinson Keyes, published by Julian Messner, Inc., New York in 1948. This is a nice old mid-century fiction title with its original cloth boards and decorated red spine, and it would make a good reading copy or shelf piece for vintage book lovers.
Condition is fair and priced accordingly. There is noticeable wear to the spine, including chipping/loss at the head and tail, plus rubbing along the edges. The boards show scuffing, soiling, and corner/edge wear, and there is some material loss visible along the spine edge. Pages have age toning, but the interior text appears readable from the photos provided. No dust jacket is present, which does affect collectible value.
Included: the hardcover book only, as shown.
Publisher: Julian Messner, Inc., New York
Copyright year: 1948
Edition note: likely an early 1948 hardcover printing, but I can't confirm a true first edition from the available photos alone.
