About This Item
Sydney: Angus and Robertson. 1935. First edition, first printing. First edition, first printing. Publisher's original light blue mottled paper covered boards with illustration and titles in dark blue to the upper board and spine, in dustwrapper. Illustrated with a colour frontispiece, 16 plates in black and white (on gloss paper) and line drawings throughout the text by Dorothy Wall. A very good copy, the binding square and firm with some rubbing and bumping to the spine tips and corners, the boards bright and fresh. The contents, with a small bookseller's stamp to the bottom of the front endpaper, a gift inscription to the upper left corner of the front pastedown (hidden by the dustwrapper flap) and heavy toning to the half title and the last page are otherwise clean throughout. One of the plates was folded to the lower margin (in production) and now has two crease lines not affecting the illustration. Complete with the rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that has tiny closed tears and chips at the spine tips and fold corners (secured with tape to the underside and a single piece to the printed side at the upper spine). (Muir 7829). Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers.
