Sobre este artículo
(Avon, CT): Limited Editions Club, 1974. Hardcover. New in glassine and a Near Fine slipcase. Thomas Rowlandson. Tall octavo (6-5/8" x 10") bound in half red morocco and marbled boards with gilt lettering on the spine. Printed at the Sign of the Stone Press. Reprints the Third Edition of 1786 with marginal comments and markings from a copy annotated by Hester Lynch Thrale Piozzi. Illustrated with an endpaper map by John Morris and 10 color reproductions of contemporary prints by Thomas Rowlandson. Issued unsigned. Of 2000 copies printed, this is one of a small quantity of unnumbered office copies never sold by the publisher. We have several copies available. The slipcases were stored separately from the books, which were still sealed in the original carton from the binder, accounting for the pristine condition of the books and the slight wear to the slipcases which were stored in an open box.
