About This Item
Hardcover with slipcase box, published by Cameo Classics. Originally published in 1904, this is the trade printing of this Cameo Classics edition. Not clearly dated, though this is probably the 1926 trade edition. Classic story of an explorer of the jungles of South America who encounters Rima, a girl living in the jungle. 5-1/2" X 8-1/2", 276 pages. Illustrated by Keith Henderson. Green cloth covered coverboards, with the Cameo Classics raised logo on the front cover. Sun fading to the spine, though the lettering on the spine is still legible. No former ownership marks, no writing on the text pages. Binding is tight and square. Edges of the text block are clean. Dark green top-stain does not appear to be faded. Outer slipcase box is intact, though it does show wear - with worn and exposed corners and a couple of chips to the edges. Not a remainder, not a library discard copy. The attached photos are of the copy we have in our inventory.
Synopsis
