Sobre este artículo
Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1926. Cloth Hardcover. Very Good with no dust jacket/No Dustjacket. Clean pages except for some age-toning to edges and endpapers; the gilt head edging shows a few tiny scratches; the binding is rather relaxed, showing stitches between signatures and with a long crack to the final free endpaper exposing netting, but remains overall secure. The full brown cloth hard cover has considerable dimming along spine, points of fraying at corners and spine ends, a bump to the top right rear causing some wrinkling to fabric and board, and surface wear to the heel edges, but remains strikingly attractive, with gilt titles and decoration at front and spine. [xi], 316pp. incl. index; color frontis + b/w illus. throughout.
