(Cambridge: Cambridge University Press 1938). First UK Edition in Second Issue Binding (bound in "limp" boards with no front end-paper as published in this Issue and stamped in SILVER rather than Gold). Published blue limp boards stamped in silver to the front board and spine. 3 plates and numerous black & white illustrations in the text. D/W is price-clipped with a touch of edge wear and minor stain marks to spine and rear and with the yellow portion of the spine darkened. Clean content throughout with no end-paper at the front but this, the Second Issue binding, was made that way. Following its publication as a hardback first edition in 1938, un-sold stock was reduced in price during WW2, price-clipped by the publisher and re-issued in a limp blue binding without a front free end-paper and stamped in silver rather than gold. The Second Issue of this title turns up occasionally but seldom in D/W in this condition. Photographs/scans available upon request. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 355490718795
