About This Item
London: Philip Lee Warner, Publisher to the Medici, 1909. First Edition First Printing . Hardcover. Very Good/Poor. 4to. Unpaginated. Hardcover bound in quarter tan cloth with grey paper-covered boards and the remains of the original grey dust jacket. Light to moderate wear to the binding. The boards show some browning and foxing, likely from the remains of the dust jacket. The front and rear panels and turn-ins of the jacket remain. The front panel of the jacket has a couple of glass rings as well as a 3 1/2inch tear on the fore edge near the bottom corner. This tear has some old and failed tape repairs and a large accompanying crease. There is also a paper label on the front panel of the jacket from the Medici Society noting this Cloth binding version originally cost 2 Pounds, 12 Shillings, 6 d. Two pieces of the jacket spine laid in loosely. Off-setting on the endpapers from the jacket flaps. There is a 1921 signature on the front flyleaf of Clement W. Harris. A sound copy with unmarked text and untrimmed edges. Collates complete with all 10 color plates. The book had been kept in a closed house, and there is a slight aroma within which we expect to air out. A scarce copy with the remains of the original dust jacket.
