About this Item

Description:

First edition 1938, hardcover book with original dust jacket. Jacket is intact, has chipping and missing portions primarily to the top front edge and a small piece on the spine. The spine is moderately darkened but overall clean and bright. The binding is solid and without any repairs, etc. There is some light toning to the page edges only. The book has been very, very carefully read. The boards are clean but there is a slight bit of foxing to the gutters. Light toning to the top edges and heavy toning in a ¼ to ½ in area of the spine right below the title which is a result of the sunlight coming through the chip in the spine prior to the dust jacket being protected with a mylar jacket. This is a beautiful clean and otherwise unmarked example of one of my favorite photo books of all time. Seller Inventory # ABE-1735588816716
