About this Item
Amsterdam, Veen, [1902]. Ingenaaid met als omslag de zogenaamde poortjes- of klompjesdecoratie van Joh. Braakensiek, een latere serieband. (8), 188 p. Niet afgesneden. 1e druk. Uiterst zeldzaam in deze kwetsbare en curieuze variant. Matig en gerestaureerd exemplaar: de omslagtekening en achterkant zijn deels aangevuld in kleurkopie, het blad is van binnen gedoubleerd. In feite is alleen het grootste deel van het voorblad origineel. Kleine notitie van antiquariaat Schuhmacher voorin. Plakbandspoortje op titelpagina. Van binnen behoorlijk goed en strak. Couperus was 'een beetje geschrokken van de Braakenziekband om de Lichtende Drempels!!!! wier mystieke sporten zeker nóoit gedroomd hadden overschreden te worden door boertjes op klompen!!!!'. Aldus een brief aan L.J. Veen van 19 februari 1916. Deze bundel bevat de volgende verhalen: 'Van de prinses met de blauwe haren', 'Van de kristallen torens', 'Over lichtende drempels', Van dagen en seizoenen' en 'Van de onzalige erfenis'. VV 226,5. Couperuscollectie Veen 1.4. Seller Inventory # 282704
