Near Fine square hardcover in black cowhide leather designed and with twenty-two silkscreens by Sol Lewitt. Covers show a few signs of handling. Colophon states (in embossed round seal text) that "This is one of 50 presentation copies out of series". It is unnumbered, therefore, and not one of the 1500 numbered copies. Scarce thus. SIGNED "Lewitt" in pencil on colophon page. Printed at the Anthoensen Press. Text in English. The slipcase is extant and sturdy and functional but not pretty, as it has 5 or 6 areas where the paper laminate has peeled away from the box, and edges are worn. Further images upon request.

'Ficciones' is a collection of short stories by Jorge Luis Borges, first published in 1944. It is one of his most famous works and showcases his exceptional use of the literary style of magical realism, exploring complex themes and philosophical concepts.
