Sobre este artículo
New York: The Viking Press, 1967. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Folio - over 12 - 15" tall. Near fine, cloth, first edition with very good DJ. Gilt lettering on spine is pristine. Spine is straight and tight. Some discoloration along edges of front cover. No markings or creases on pages. Pages are perfect. All illustrations are mint. Dust jacket has 1/4 " closed tear at top of spine, 1/4" closed tear at bottom of back cover and some scuffing on front. Possible warping/bowing of covers, so slight as to be imperceptible. Not even sure about it, but better to say than not. Highly collectible. I classify it as Near Fine rather than Fine only because of the slight discoloration around cover edges. Chock full of high quality full page (folio) art plates
