Margaret Ayer Barnes’ novel Years of Grace (Pulitzer Prize-Fiction, 1931), carries the unique distinction of having the rarest book wrapper among first printings of Pulitzer winners in history. The Gianakos-Safos Collection is proud to have one of these incredibly rare first printings with dust jacket among its holdings. The Collection also has another first printing copy signed by Barnes containing an association letter typed and signed by the author, and a signed US first printing of the novel’s sequel Wisdom’s Gate.
