A Gent from Bear Creek

No book-club issue is documented. The critical trap is a modern facsimile reproduction of the 1937 Jenkins: it is bound in BLUE cloth rather than orange, carries the Jenkins logo to the spine, and wears a facsimile of the original jacket art — cloth colour is therefore a first-line check. The Donald M. Grant 1965 was itself a facsimile-style reprinting of the Jenkins text, and every subsequent reprinting has been edited; the 1975 paperback is a revised edition, and later print-on-demand hardcovers are 'first thus' at best.
