Book has faint loss of colour but nothing substantial, very good indeed. Dj is only slightly nicked to top edge and head of spine, which also has 0.5cm and 1cm chips at foot with short accompanying closed tears, there, to the front joint. Dj is internally browned and externally moderately dusty with spine sunned. Very good. A slightly scarcer title of Stein's; perhaps the approaching war, referred to in the blurb, was taking peoples attention from reading. Acquired from Maud Lloyd, an admired leading dancer with Ballet Rambert in the 1930s. Later she wrote, with her husband, Nigel Gosling, influential dance books and reviews under the pseudonym, 'Alexander Bland'. When Rudolph Nureyev defected in 1961, they became his surrogate parents.
