Sobre este artículo
Charles Scribner's Sons, 1929. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover with original DJ, 1929 Charles Scribner's Sons 339 pages. Very Good, in a VG DJ. Minor shelf/edge wear to black cloth boards with gilt spine title and full color pastedown to front cover - corners lightly bumped. Moderate shelf/edge wear, toning and chipping to clipped DJ - now in mylar. No previous owner markings - all pages are intact with no writing. Deckled edges. NOTE: there are two flaws to the pages: 1) the previous owner did not know the proper way to separate pages and there are several with chips to the edges, and 2) there is foxing to many of the pages. This is reflected in the price. Ten classic stories of fantasy perfectly blended with 9 full color illustrations and color endpapers by Maxfield Parrish. A respectable depression-era copy in the original DJ. LOC SSS-12
Sinopsis
The Arabian Nights collection is a series of tales collected over the milennia and in this famous format, retold by the sultana Scheherazade, who uses the compelling tales with many dramatic turns as entertainments for her jealous and murderous husband, hoping to keep him amused and herself alive to tell the next part of the tale on the following night! The body of tales is made up of ancient and medieval Arabic, Persian, Indian, Egyptian and Mesopotamian folklore and literature, and many of the tales are familiar: Aladdin's Wonderful Lamp, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and The Seven Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor.
