About This Item
Akron: Saint Dunston Society, n.y.. Paperback. 8vo. Stiff beige wrappers with brown cloth tape spine. Pp. 13-28. Very good overall. Internally tight and bright, with outer wrappers (only) edgeworn and age toned. This curious offprint was apparently excerpted from "The Universal Classics Library," which explains the odd pagination. Undated, perhaps circa 1910. Definitely for the Khayyam completist!
