Sobre este artículo
Nicely illustrated antique copy of "Where the Blue Begins" by Christopher Morley. 1922; William Heinemann; London. This edition features four full-page color plates and 16 line drawings by ARTHUR RACKHAM. Illustrated end papers in color.
From a review: "A story of an anthropomorphized dog named Mr. Gissing, living his life in an ordinary way which turns into a search for truth, God, and the meaning of life. Elements of philosophy, religion, humor, and insight are all combined alongside the wonderful illustrations from Arthur Rackham."
Condition:
Light soiling to the covers and spine; light stain at the bottom edge of the front cover; tiny cloth tears to the corner tips, and at the top and bottom edges of the spine. Tight binding with no loose pages. The front pastedown has a 3" paper tear along the inner edge near the spine; there are also 2 bookplates affixed, one placed over the other. Light tanning to the end papers and pastedowns. Nice pages - mostly clean with only a few random, light smudges found. Overall the book is in Very Good- condition.
