How it works

Register

First edition of this scarce and desirable Schreiner item in the rare dw. which is hardly ever encountered. This is a very good plus copy in the original red cloth which is bright with bright gilt lettering on the spine. There is possibly a hint of a damp mark (barely visible) along the front edge of the upper front board. Slight offsetting to the endpapers ow. an unmarked crisp and desirable copy. The dw. has some irregular chipping at the top of the spine about 8mm. deep. It also has some slight fading in areas. There is a closed split 6cms. long along the lower part of the fold between the front panel and the front flap which is not visible in the Brodart dw. protector. All in all a superior copy of this title.
