About This Item
New York: The Macmillian Company, 1961. Hardcover. Unpaginated, about one hundred pages with as many inventive sketches, alkaline paperstock, excellent reproductions, hard bound in 11X8.5 inch glossy paper-over-boards under a black cloth backstrip titled in silverfoil, and enclosed in the dust jacket. Book itself is close to fine, with a touch of wear at the top and tail of spine (loss of a little color, only), but the dust jacket is generally worn and has neat tape-strengthenings to verso. Sound, clean, and unmarked, a very good copy.
