Thank you to the Lactnetter that helped with accessing the Library of
Congress regarding:

A 1944 edition of
Childbirth Without Fear  The principles and practice of natural childbirth

by Grantly Dick Read  M.A., M.D. (Camb.)
Harper & Brothers Publishers  New York and London
with dust jacket  that has a quote from the queen on the front
–  pretty good condition for 55 years old

It is indeed a first edition!

To everyone else - ticket sales have slowed down - if we don't hear from
more people soon, we may call it quits early and give the early responders
better odds of winning.  Let us know soon if you are interested.
