About This Item
London: Stanley Paul & Co. Ltd, 1925. First Edition. Blue Cloth. Very Good Minus/No Jacket. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. Saida. 105pp. 1925. First edition, first impression. Small folio sized. A very good minus, clean, tight copy. Original publisher's blue cloth - gilt embossed to the spine and to the front board with colour onlay to the front board. No inscriptions. 12 charming coloured plates - as called for by Saida (H. Willebeek Le Mair). No inscriptions. Some mostly light spotting scattered throughout. A small chip to the cloth measuring 1.5cm x 0.6mm at the tail of the spine - no loss of text; but for this the copy would be most definately in very good condition - if not better. The upper front board corner slightly bumped. A very good minus, essentially clean, tight copy.
