How it works

Register

The first (and only) edition of this book - one of only two books written by Irma Stern herself (the other being Congo). Both are scarce and sought after limited editions. This edition of Zanzibar is one of the 350 copies of the regular edition, although not numbered. (There were also 150 de-luxe signed copies). In the original grey/beige cloth with a pictorial onlay of a Zanzibar door on the front board. With tipped in and in-text monochrome illustrations of Stern's paintings and drawings.

A very good plus clean tight unmarked copy. There is some very light spotting of the edges of the text block with occasional minimal extension to the margins of a few pages, but this is almost unnoticeable.
