About This Item
[Halifax: Royal Print and Litho, 1931]. First edition. . 8vo. Vellum, the front cover decorated and titled in brown and black. Map end papers. Frontispiece & 9 illustrations. Covers bowed, short tears at the hinge ends from the bowing, a nice clean copy in very good condition. Apparently 500 copies were printed, of which this is one of 250 having the Mersey Paper Company ad leaf at the front. The book was issued in glasine and a box; neither are present here. The book was published by C.H.L. Jones, the text by Thomas Raddall and the illustrations by Thomas W. Hayhurst. Quite uncommon.
