Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Limited Edition. One of the Asian Series by this publisher with special limitation page bound in. This is hand numbered as "110" out of 500 copies that were printed and scarce as such. Evidence of some scuffing to some small areas on red padded binding that have been filled in with a close matchi…ng red dye by an amateur - but still easily visible but not too detractive. All edges with gilt and a bookmark bound in. Marbled end papers, raised bands with decorated compartments and gilt mountains decor and titles on cover. This is a facsimile of a rare 1911 edition. Fold-out map in fine condition. About very good condition due to the faults mentioned. No other faults.
