Beschreibung
A very good copy in the original red decorative cloth binding with 16 tipped-in colour plates and 8 tinted full page plates by Arthur Rackham. With fair to good dust wrapper. Undated but 1922 1st edition in this form. The wrapper has a pasted picture and titles to the front cover. There is loss to the top of the spine and edge nibbling at the bottom of the spine and the flap joints and along the top edge of the back cover. It has had some repair. The flaps are quite small but there is no indication that they have been trimmed. The jacket is in a removable protective wrap. The binding has blind stamped titles and a gilt design to the front board and gilt titles to the spine. It is very bright and clean with just slight pulling and corner wear. Top page edges green. The decorative endpapers are clean with a small signature dated December 1926 to the top of the front pastedown. The contents, with tissue-guarded frontispiece, decorative title page and text with numerous designs as well as the tipped-in and tinted plates, is in very good clean condition. The tissue guard to the frontispiece is beginning to detach at the top and there is slight spotting to the title page and rear endpapers. The stitching is visible at p80 but the book is sound. There is some spotting to the foredge. A very good copy in rare wrapper. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 032388
