Clean text; 256 pages, all ends giult; decorative endpapers. 29 illustrations "reproduced by the new half-tone process." The illustrations appear to have been hand-coloured in an expert way. Rather light soiling, more at the margins. Corners lightly bumped, and a slight lean. Quite attractive, and lacking any juvenalia.. First Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
