About This Item
Oslo: Nordiske Bokverk, 1950. Book. Illus. by Profuse Sketches and Photos. Fine. 3/4 Leather. First Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. The publication date is not given; I am guessing based on the autos in the photos and the binding style. Text in Norwegian. Terra cotta calf spine and corners, with a modern, art nouveau series of gilt birds on the spine. Clean and tight inside, no foxing or prior owner marks. Pages 503 with table of contents at the rear. Nicely illustrated, with chapters on Finnmark, Trondheim, Romsdal, etc. No other copies on the internet as of this writing..
