Item description from seller

v, 9p., splendid Nash work on 12.5x9 inch thick mould-made paper; there is a colophon that does not particularize anything but the limitation (215 copies, this copy not numbered). Find lime-green decorations. The exemplar in hand is fastened with original thread, now only partially intact. Covers are old laid-line blanks, also lime-green; covers are detached and spinefold is damaged. Each and every printed leaf is in good condition and the whole could be cobbled together and become handsome again. But: as is, WAF (With All Faults). Doubleday, Page & Co. issued Daniels' main text in 1921, in what format we do not know; author Daniels was a "landscape architect formerly in charge of United States National Parks". The reprint in hand is lovely work by J.H. Nash, but it is scarcely "a book" in this condition. Perhaps the major attraction here is the page & a half of Sterling's emotings on the subject of trees.
