Rare: this title is not recorded in any institutional holding. Bound, as befitting its deluxe status, in green silk with gold embellishments to covers, spine, head, and tail. Green silk endpapers, green, white, and pink endbands, and an intact green ribbon bookmark. Housed in a green morocco slipcase with similar, but not matching, gilt styling.
