Step back into literary history with this vintage 1951 hardcover copy of The Caine Mutiny by Herman Wouk, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1952.

This particular copy is a rare misprint: the cover title was stamped upside down and on the back board instead of the front — making it a unique collector’s item.
• Published by Doubleday & Company, 1951
• Hardcover, red cloth boards with gilt lettering
• No dust jacket
• Early 1951 printing (does not state “First Edition” on the copyright page)
• Condition: Pages are clean and binding is solid; light shelf wear consistent with age
• Unique collectible for fans of Pulitzer Prize fiction, Herman Wouk, or unusual publishing errors

Perfect for collectors who appreciate not just the story, but the quirky history behind the book itself.
