Register

Colour-illustrated unclipped french-fold laminated dustjacket, brown cloth-boards, gilt-lettered to the spine, plain chrome endpapers, 71 pp of colour- and monochrome-illustrated text, index and colophon, all printed on 130 gm2 matt-art paper.

Copies as good as this of the first edition of this invaluable illustrated elephant study are rare.

CONDITION. This copy is complete, unmarked and undiscoloured. The lamination of the dustjacket is superficially scored, as with a pen on paper and visible only from some angles. There are also two small white chip-marks at the top of the dustjacket between the spine and the lower panel (see image). Conservatively near-fine, but we have not seen a better copy of this now 25-year-old book.
