About This Item
London : WELLS GARDNER , nd (ca 1928) . . Good . 8VO . Black and white illustrations by Browne. In a handsome prize binding of gilt decorated blue calf, marbled edges and endpapers, six spine compartments, spine label. Book is very attractive looking at the front cover and the spine, not so much when looking at the rear cover which has suffered from extensive bioporedation. Strongly suggest that you do as I do and just admire the front and spine.
