About This Item
New York: Old Town Books, 1990. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. Thick 8vo., 640pp. Beautiful First Printing, with full number sequence, of this new edition, originally published in 1966. Bound in 1/4 black cloth over black paper-covered boards with titles in gilt on spine. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear save a few dog-eared pages. Very attractive pictorial unclipped, though unpriced, dust-jacket, has a touch of edge-wear and a gently toned spine panel. Still fresh and bright with no chipping, creases or tears. A very pretty collectable copy.
