Default Help with identification of a book. T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets.
Having a clear out and I have discovered a copy of The Four Quartets as a single volume. No dust jacket and the spine is crushed. The spine has, in faded gold capitals, the book title and the word Faber. (The publisher.)
On the inside someone has hand written in ink a name and address and a date November 1944.
The inside cover indicates it is Faber and Faber, London. The date is Mcmxliv which I take to mean 1944. Is this a first edition UK copy?
This is because there is no other indication on it, so I would assume so.
Any help confirming this would be useful. Additionally it would be useful to have an insurance value ...
Thanks kindly.
