Original two-tone cloth boards; spine lettered in gilt. 31 numbered pages, printed to recto only. First and last few leaves uncut. Page edges untrimmed. Covers grubby and stained. Spine ends chipped. Leaves clean with just the slightest hint of foxing and some off-setting to endpapers. A very good copy. Seller Inventory # 001886

Store Description

Bricks and mortar bookshop in East London. We sell second hand and collectible books. Most subjects are covered, but we are especially strong on literature (both paperbacks and first and rare editions), music and photography. Only a small part of our collection is available online. Please get in touch if you're looking for a particular title, or pop over to our shop in Leyton, East London. We are proud of our history as a renowned second hand bookshop, trading many years on the famous Charing Cross Road. In 2020 the Charing Cross Road shop closed down. After a period of trading online only, we opened our new premises in June 2024.
