Description

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
Lovely edition illustrated by Ronald Balfour with six full colour plates and thirty plates that are mainly in black and white but some have small amounts of colour in them.
1st edition thus published in London by Constable and Company Limited in 1920.
10ins by 7.5ins  
One small creased corner on a black and white plate o/w contents are in very good clean and firmly bound condition.
Cream boards are a little browned around the edges. The circular illustration on the front board was designed to be viewed through a hole in the dust wrapper but the wrapper has not lined up correctly leaving a darkened edge around one side of the illustration.
Wrapper is rather shabby with rubbing, browning, tears and small losses
UK courier service is £4.50
Courier service to USA, Canada is £25; to Australia, Asia is £30

I only charge actual postage as close as I can estimate it. All parcels are insured in transit.  Courier services such as Fedex may be cheaper than Royal Mail or Parcelforce for larger parcels and I normally check the different options before sending an invoice. Always happy to combine postal charges if buying more than one item.
