Sobre este artículo
London & New York: John Lane The Bodley Head & Dodd, Mead and Company, 1926. Lord George Gordon Byron (1788-1824) left his satirical poem incomplete, but it has been enjoyed nonetheless ever since. This is a Very Good copy of the First Edition Thus, a very nice production. The 93 illustrations and decorations by John Austen (1886-1948) are erotic, but not pornographic; in an art deco style, they are actually quite delightful. Clean text; 408 pages (includes Notes). The surface is soiled and the rear hinge is cracked but holding nicely. The fron paste-down has a bookplate featuring Captain Ahab; tiny bookseller sticker on the rear paste-down. A solid and enjoyable volume. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First Thus. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. Illus. by John Austen.
