About This Item
Dublin, Ireland: The Cuala Press, 1926. One of 300 copies, unnumbered as was the Cuala custom. Pale blue paper-covered boards with buff linen spine and a paper label. Browning to free endpapers where unprotected by the jacket; faint in front, darker in the rear. Otherwise immaculate, with none of the browning to the boards which is the norm with Cuala Press titles; text leaves unopened. The remains of the original dustjacket (lacking spine) are included; this has the title and author written in pencil on the front. The jacket has not factored into the price. Near fine in a poor jacket. Wade 150; Miller 38.
