HARDBACK - A fine book with the pictorial frontispiece, and an additional eleven black and white illustrations by F.D. Bedford. The green boards are fresh, and the gilt illustration to the front panel, and to the spine are fine and unfaded. The book is tightly bound with sharp spine tips and corners. (There is a small bump to the bottom corner of the front board, but the corner is still sharp.) Internally, the pages are very clean and white, with just the odd foxing spot throughout the text and a little dustiness to the top page block. The dust wrapper is in fine condition for its age. There is very minor chipping to the spine tips and to the corners of the front and rear flap folds. There is fading to the spine, but the gilt is fresh and unfaded to the front board. In summary, a superb book in its original first issue dust wrapper which is in excellent condition for its age, especially as the wrapper is very thin and notoriously fragile. Please view the numerous scans for an indication as to the title's overall condition.
