Limited edition of 2300, of which this is 1718. Language: Spanish. Beautiful brown leather-bound hardcover with 3 raised bands on the spine and an integral brass latch with a twisting lock mechanism. A modest bump/dent to the head of the cover spine. Back cover a bit warped, not perfectly flat (see photo). Back cover has a small (no more than 1 cm.) crack in the leather towarards the bottom right (see photo). Back cover also has a few small black scuffs/marks (see photo). Overall the cover has some general rubbing with some subtle lines/scratches from storage and past contact against other books; however, the cover is still very attractive and should become more uniform with age. A tiny nick to the front pastedown (endpaper) at the edge right next to the back of the brass latch. Pages and illustrations are clean, unmarked, and in very good shape. 241 pages, 33 x 25 cm.
