Sobre este artículo
London : Adam and Charles Black, 1904 A good copy of the 1st impression of the 1st edition in the original decorative cloth binding with colour frontispiece and 15 further colour plates by Philip Dadd. The cream cloth binding has gilt titles to the front board and spine with a design in green and tan to the front. Top page edges gilted. The cream has darkened, particularly on the spine, and there is some scuffing to the cloth surface. The back board and spine have some light marking. Corners have some wear, particularly the bottom corner of the front board which has a bump and a cloth fray. Spine ends lightly pulled. Contents with half title; frontispiece; tissue guard; title with red publisher's emblem and without address details for the publisher; dedication; illustration list; poem; text with 15 tissue-guarded plates p 1-105; epilogue p 106; 2 pp publisher's ads at the rear, advertising The Gold Bat, The Pothunters, A Prefect's Uncle; and Tales of St Austin's. Contents are generally very clean and sound. There are a few light gilt ink squiggles at the front pastedown and free endpaper. Plate III has ragged tissue guard and side edge. There is occasional light foxing. Please enquire if you would like to see additional images.
