About This Item
The Ibis, 1920. Softcover. Good/No Jacket. Signed. 29 pages (copy). A UNIQUE copy of this very rare pamphlet. The front cover is intimately INSCRIBED and SIGNED by FINCH-DAVIES: "With Love from Claude". Signature authenticated. Not only is Finch-Davies' signature rarely found, but the use of first name only is exceptional. The ink is clear. The covers of the pamphlet have much wear, creasing, scuffing all about. They remain benign, secure. The spine is much worn. It is sure and efficient. The contents have evidence of ownership and use throughout. The pages have a general fold crease along the length of the pages (pocket storage??). The edges have handling marks, usage wear. However, the pages are clean, clear, placid, earnest, more than competent, assured, comfortable. fk. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
