The Scribner Treasury 22 Classic Tales Hardcover Book 1953 Vintage Anthology

This vintage 1953 hardcover edition of The Scribner Treasury: 22 Classic Tales is a 689-page literary anthology published by Charles Scribner's Sons. Compiled as a curated retrospective of the publisher's most celebrated short fiction from 1881 to 1932, the collection features iconic stories and novellas from a legendary lineup of American and British master authors, including Edith Wharton, Ring Lardner, Sir James M. Barrie, and John Galsworthy. It serves as a fantastic historical reference piece for antiquarian book lovers and a classic addition to any mid-century bookshelf display.  The book is in good, tight, and completely readable overall vintage condition with secure structural binding. Reflecting honest wear for a vintage volume, the blue cloth-bound cover exhibits typical light shelf wear and a minor surface tear on the cloth near the middle of the front cover spine edge, though the interior pages remain complete, clean, and free of text obstructions.
