About This Item
Hodder & Stoughton London Undated but could be a first printing of the first hardcover edition. The jacket is worn and it has some abrasions and chippings and a couple of tears, but this is a near complete - and now protected - example. The red cloth has an elaborate embossed and attractive design, and it has been protected all these years well enough to be clean and unfaded. The text block is foxed on the edges and less so inside. Collectable example of this clever writer's work. No former owner marks, not an ex library copy. Clean and tight binding. Language: eng. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good.
