About This Item
The Navarre Society Limited, 1948 GOOD+. no dj. blue boards have some minor rubs to corners and edges, but no loss. the spine is lightly rolled to both ends. gilt titling and detailing are a tad dulled, but readable. endpapers have isolated foxing points, and some light tanned area ( perhaps a former article laid-in ?) no inscriptions or marginalia. a lovely clean copy.
