Beschreibung

Attractive faded brown purplish silky cloth covers. Spine is more worn with rumples and a paper label; printed black and red, readable, but edge worn on right side, extending a couple inches below the label. Rear lower corner bumped but straightened, with the rest and top and bottom edges of spine in good shape. Pages are clean with quality heavy paper bright and in very good shape, and only a small bit of foxing, mostly to the tissue covers of a few of the illustrations. Fine engravings throughout, all tissue protected; some are whole-page and some in-text, in various color tintings. Hinges and binding solid. No markings. The frontispiece is a fine color illustration of Daphnis and Chloe. This copy is number 312 of 550 limited printings for the Salon Edition. No date but printed in the late 1890's (1896 seems to be the date). About 6.5 x 10.2 in (16.6 x 26 cm). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 000016
