About This Item
Faber, London, 1949. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. Inscribed by Author(s). 1st Edition. First Edition (first printing). A presentation copy, inscribed by Nash's widow (the book's dedicatee): "To Michael Wheeler Booth, from Margaret Nash, In friendship & with every good wish for New Year 1951, Oxon". Wheeler-Booth's handsome bookplate is pasted to the front pastedown. Tall 8vo. 271pp. Teal buckram lettered in gold and white at the spine and upper board. With a delightful colour frontispiece, one further colour and fifty-one monochrome plates. Edges spotted, with a touch more spotting to the free endpapers, and a sliver of discolouration to the buckram at the spine ends where the wrapper is defective. A very good copy in the John Nash-designed dust wrapper, non-price-clipped but a little tanned at the spine panel, with some light spotting to the front panel and a little more to the rear, and perhaps a centimetre of loss from the head of the spine and a touch more from the base..
