How the Grinch Stole Christmas True First Edition Book 2nd Edition Cover fashion 1957 Dr. Seuss

First Edition First Printing hardback copy of How the Grinch Stole Christmas. This is a true first edition of the book, but a second edition of the cover. I have had this book since childhood and was unclear as to why it would be a different cover. It was explained to me that they often made more books that covers, and that is how this would have been paired with a different cover even when first released

There are no marks, no writing and no book plates. The price is clipped.

There are some spots of discoloration throughout the book (several examples included) and the cover is in the condition as shown,

I will be selling a number of Dr. Seuss books that were mine as a child in the 50s and 60s and then fashion some of my own children's. I am not an expert at books and I am describing as best I can. Please ask any questions you might have or request additional pictures if needed.
