Undated but presumably 1920s or 1930s, apparently a scarce edition in the more up-market Everyman's Library binding options. The first edition of this translation, by same publisher, was however in 1912 according to Ryder's Wikipedia entry but 1920 on the link provided with this. While affecting condition rating these markings perhaps add int, so possibly a 1st. rest, especially as they seem to have taken the trouble to add the Society's gilt name to front. 11cm x 17.5 cm.
Condition: Good. Good condition. No Dust Jacket (sanskrit literature, to 1500 ) A copy that has been read but remains intact. May contain markings such as bookplates, stamps, limited notes and highlighting, or a few light stains.
