About This Item
New York: Harry N. Abrahams, 1987. Wonderfully-illustrated celebration of the first 100 years of the Society from its founding in 1888. Brown faux leather covers with gilt lettering to spine and front which also has gilt decoration, 484pp inc index. Gilt page edges and silk bookmark, which is still tucked in as if the book was unopened and, indeed, it looks unread. There are no obvious faults. A beautiful copy, but heavy and will require extra postage. Ref:071280. First Edition. Faux Leather. As New/n/a. 24x29.5cm.
