About This Item
London: Sir Isaac Pitman and Sons, 1926. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Publisher's red hardback in very good condition: square with firm joints, no splits, just mildly rubbed. Complete with original dustjacket, which is chipped and darkened, and now preserved after being remounted on stiff white card paper. Contents essentially clean and tight, no pen-marks. And not from a library so no such stamps or labels. Size: 8vo (185mm x 125mm); pages: 62, with a frontispiece plate of Baird and eleven additional illustrative plates. Note: this work is nearly always seen in stiff card covers whereas this first edition is bound in a hardcover. As such it is very rare, probably one of a very small number of specially produced de-luxe first editions. Thus a very good copy of a fragile work offered for sale a reasonable price.
