About This Item
No dust jacket. Green cloth covered boards with gilt print and decoration stamped on the front and spine. Spine is darkened a little. Some mild edgewear. Pages are clean, tight and unmarked, with many illustrations. This would be a very good book, other than one problem. The binding has split behind the endpaper, at the half-title page. Not just showing the binding fabric, but clean through (see photo #4). This kind of repair is beyond my abilities, so I am selling this as-is, leaving any repair to the buyer. A rare and interesting volume, first published in 1914. My copy would be one of the better looking copies on the market, if it weren't for this unfortunate break. Priced accordingly.

Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost.
