Scarce first edition in its original green cloth with stunning decorative design. The book is in very good condition. The boards have only a little in the way of wear/ marks, some bumping to the spine ends, and displays wonderfully. The binding is mostly very firm aside from one signature which is loosening (pages 131 to 142.) Endpapers are strong. The pages are in excellent condition with little in the way of marks or blemishes. A really wonderful copy of this delightful book which mixes botany with mythology. Please see photos for condition.
