About This Item
London: Chatto & Windus, 1912. Hardcover. Very good/Good. Thin folio. (24) pp. Vellum-paper printed in red over boards. Exquisitely illuminated on every page in full color and gilt by Alberto Sangorski. The edges are worn, inner hinges cracked and vellum lightly stained with age, else this is a very good copy.
The scarce dustwrapper is present. It has significant wear especially to the edges of the folds and with a worn hole in the spine, Still it gives a good appearance.
