Sobre este artículo
The Pilgrim Press. London. 1913. Fifth (revised) edition. 8vo. (7.5 x 5.4 inches). xvi/1-294pp. Illustrated with 12 full page mono illustrations by various artists. A few pages at the front of the text affected by light foxing but overall a very good clean copy in a fine early leather binding by Austin & Sons Ltd, with their ticket pasted inside back cover. Full red calf, lavish gilt decoration to spine, leather title label in gilt, both boards with gilt ruling/ board edges and inner dentelles. Marbled endpapers, silk head and tailbands. College emblem to front board, in gilt. Marbled block edges. College prize label inside front cover. A lovely presentation of this interesting book.
