Upsidonia Archibald Marshall

London, Stanley Paul & Co., 1915. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A very good copy. Lost Race. A utopia found when the protagonist was exploring a gave, and yep, you guessed it…everything was upside down! The rich were poor, poor were rich and the worst crime was to give away money [Spectator, 01/01/16]. The only way this could've gotten a poorer title is if Marshall had opted not to exclude the W (at least Upsidownia is knowningly whimsical). Uncommon in the jacket. In Blieler as Utopia / Satire [p134]. Locke's copy from Spectrum [vI, p151]. A couple of chips to the jacket, some rubbing and creasing and a little edge wear. Jacket fixed with tape to the reverse. Some spotting to the foreedge, a little bumping to the spine tips. Cover art by Savile Lumley [11217, Hyraxia Books].
