About This Item
London, UK Cassell , 1968. Hardcover Fourth Edition (1968); Second Impression Thus (1972). Very Good+ in Very Good- DJ: The Book shows indications of very careful use: just a touch of shelving wear to the lower extremities; else flawless, although the text pages, while not tanned, are no doubt less bright that when published (no longer 'fresh'); the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing mild wear and minor, unobtrusive cosmetic imperfections. Corners sharp. Not far from "As New". The DJ shows light wear to the extremities; mild rubbing to the panels; a hint of sunning to the emerald background field of the backstrip; the price has been clipped; mylar-protected. Remains attractive and but for the price clip, intact. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 4to. (10.3 x 7.8 x 1.5 inches). 311 pages. Profusely illustrated with numerous duotone photographs, maps, drawings and designs and several full-color plates. Language: English. Weight: 42.9 ounces. Fourth Edition (1968); Second Impression Thus (1972). Hardback with DJ.
