Beschreibung

Octavo. xii 164 pp., frontis, 2 plates. First edition. In publisher's blue, embossed cloth; a separately published folding map to accompany this volume is not present and is itself fairly uncommon, otherwise all plates are present. Binding is a trifle shelfworn and has a notable forward lean; corners and spine ends softened; very sensitive conservation work to some to some weak spots in the cloth; additionally, the a few preliminary leaves have been sympathetically reattached and the front hinge mended; all in all, some very discreet and professional work. Contents are largely clean but for some light foxing to the three engravings; a few leaves have been roughly or carelessly opened leaving some tears in the margin. Previous ownership stamp of 20th century American archaeologist Harry Evelyn Dorr Pollock on the front free endpaper; Edmonds & Remnants, London binder's ticket on the rear pastedown. Uncommon. Sabin 2771. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 6458
