Original maroon cloth with gilt borders and lettering; top edge gilt. [32.6 cm.] Sun-fading to spine and, to a lesser degree, outer areas of covers; light spotting and speckling to cloth. Hinges are sound and the volume shows little wear. Free endpapers a little tanned, a few minor traces of marginal foxing, light offsetting from color plates to facing pages. Near very good. FIRST EDITION. One of 600 copies, this copy unnumbered. The tenth book of the First Editions Club. Most of the bindings depicted in this volume were made in England or France and the majority date from the 16th and 17th centuries, with one 15th century binding and a few 18th-century examples. Geoffrey Dudley Hobson (1882-1949) was a leading authority on early English bindings and a longtime employee of Sotheby's in London.�
