Dust-jacket protected in archival mylar cover. ; Fourth edition. 417, [2], [1 (blank)] pages + plates (some colour). Orange-red boards with gilt lettering on spine. Page dimensions: 240 x 148mm. "Acland worked on a very wide canvas, dealing with well over 150 separate run histories, and often, through no fault of his own, his facts were astray and his information in need of checking. A completely accurate, definitive edition of this book will probably never be possible but this new forth edition is a considerable advance in that direction." - from the dust wrapper blurb. .
