About This Item
Rupert Hart Davis London, 1950 Edited with an introduction and notes by Janet Adam Smith. This standard collected edition is classified 'Near Fine' taking the age into account. It is firm, the binding is beautifully secure with a rounded spine, and there are no added marks, annotations, or names. This is not an ex library copy. Cloth binding is not faded, the corners are firm and square. Gilt titling to the spine. Rare in such a nice complete jacket, which is sun darkened on the spine, but now protected.
