About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1930. Reprinted September 1949 . Hardcover. Very Good/Fair. The interior of the book is clean and tight. A former owner has written her name and address on the free front end paper, but there are no other marks, and just a few indications of previous use. The 13 black and white plates, and double-page coloured map are present. The black covers are also in very good condition, with no soiling and only minor wear showing at tips and corners. The red spine lettering is undamaged. The dust jacket, however, is only in Fair condition. It is corner clipped, and has three large nicks of paper missing on the front panel/spine. The attached scan should give a better idea of condition. The jacket is now in a protective mylar cover.
