This edition was released in Great
Britain to coincide with the release of the motion picture. Its nickname - The Cheap
Edition" comes from the wording on the copyright page: 
The inside front flap of the dust jacket states the same in more flattering verbiage:
- To mark the phenomenal success of the film of
GONE WITH THE WIND Macmillan & Co. present, in a new edition at a greatly
reduced price, Margaret Mitchell's world-famous novel.
The first printing of this edition was in October of 1940, and it was reprinted in
November, 1940 and June, 1941.
The blue cloth binding is not particularly remarkable, but despite its
cheap price, the attractive dust jacket makes it a delightful copy to own, and
not easy to find. |
