About This Item
Pomona, NY: Kelly-Winterton Press, 2004. First Edition. Leaf book with four leaves of Pickering books tipped in, of which one taken from one of his minute Diamond Classics, is an extra insert for this copy. In addition to the list, it is lavishly illustrated with images of pages from many of his books--half the book is taken with all of the reproductions. The images are in black and white, and a few are in color or black and red. The title page and one other page of his splendid Euclid are beautifully reproduced, but reduced in size. One of three hundred copies. 8 1/2 x 5 5/8 inches. 56 pages of text, about as many pages of reproductions of pages, unpaginated but indexed back to the bibliographical entry. Fine except for a slight, faint spot on front cover.check number of original leaves and facsimiles tipped in
