Endpapers of book stock. Printed on gray laid paper (see BAL 4083). Paper label on spine. 96 numbered pages. Book plate of American author, poet, and collector of poetry, Carolyn Wells (1862-1942). Very small Brentano's book store sticker on rear pastedown. Bright, clean and quite unfaded gray paper with art by Bradley on front cover. A tiny notch of paper loss from paper spine label not affecting any type. The fragile nature of this particular binding has unfortunately resulted in a thin splitting of about 1.5 inches to exterior of both front and rear upper hinge areas. There is also a one-eighth of an inch loss of material at head of spine, not affecting anything. Front cover has a light, 3 inch scrape line. All pages still tight, and overall an attractive copy and fine example of artistic book design.. Paper Covered Boards. Good/No Jacket as Issued. Illus. by Will Bradley. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
