About This Item
Berlin: Conrad Paris, 1915. Hardcover. Unpaginated preliminaries, 318, 348, 299p., photocopied text in Blackletter or Fraktur German throughout, facsimile #366 of an unspecified limitation. Very skilled casebindings of matching design, smooth brown cloth that very closely resembles leather, gotten up with raised bands and panels in blind that would have fooled this cataloguer into thinking 'leather', had it not been for a few tiny chips in the cloth surface. Each volume measures 8x5.5 inches, all edges sprinkled with decorative red speckle, tight clean little copies in very good shape except for tiny spine labels glued to the external heel of each. Label to v.1 is lost and has left an unattractive residue. All in all, good to very good copies.
