Original pale blue card wrappers, wire-stitched as issued, front cover lettered in blue. With 12 half-tone plates. A very good copy of this scarce work. First edition, first printing, of this illustrated study by the curator of the Museum of Arab Art, Cairo. Hassan's was the first attempt to "relate representations of hunting scenes to their practical and social functions" (Hillenbrand, p. 229). With the exception of one, all the artefacts captured in the photographic half-tones are drawn from the collections under the author's care at the Cairo museum.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
