Condition:

A very clean and attractive copy.

The pages are exceptionally clean and fresh, with no noticeable foxing. The wood engravings are all clear, clean and crisp throughout.

The binding remains very well preserved, with only very slight sunning to the spine, which is minor and does not detract significantly from the overall appearance.

The original slipcase is present and remains in very good condition.

Please study the photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.

I am a private collector rather than a bookseller and am simply clearing out a few books from my collection to make way for some new reading material.

A particularly pleasing example of this beautifully produced Limited Editions Club edition, especially attractive for its clean condition, original slipcase and signed limitation.

Will be packed very carefully for postage.
