FITZGERALD, F. Scott (1896-1940). The Beautiful and Damned. New York: Scribner's, 1922.

8o. Original publisher's green cloth, pictorial dust jacket (a few slight tears at upper edge); half morocco slipcase. Provenance: purchased Christie's New York, 9 June 1992, lot 69.

FIRST EDITION of Fitzgerald's second novel. Believed to be based on his relationship with Zelda, the novel provides a portrait of the Eastern elite during the Jazz Age. It was serialized before book publication in Metropolitan Magazine (September 1921-March 1922), and contained a two-paragraph conclusion Fitzgerald ultimately omitted when he revised it for book publication. Bruccoli A8.1.a. A very fine copy.
