Beschreibung

The second edition of Peake's first book (the vast majority of the first edition, published by Country Life in 1939, was destroyed during the Blitz). 4to. Forty-seven unpaginated pages of text. Beige cloth lettered in green at the upper board. Printed on alternating pink, blue, yellow and white sheets and copiously illustrated in colour by the author (the first edition was only produced with black and white drawings). A little damp marking to the board edges and some resulting crinkling to head and base of the preliminary and final leaves. Short tears to the base of five leaves. A very bright copy in very good internally reinforced non-price-clipped pictorial dust wrapper, chafed with just a little loss to the spine ends and with two or three minuscule edge tears.
