Description: About this Item: 256 Pp. First Printing, Binding B, With Olive Green Endpapers.Light Blue Cloth. Front Cover Paper Label Illustrated In Full Color On Metallic-Gold Background; Spine Stamped In Black With Vignette In Silver; Publisher's Spine Imprint In Upper And Lower Case Letters; Advertisement At Front With Three Titles Only; 16 Full-Color Plates; Light Rubbing, Mostly At Corners; Name of my grandfather written on inside cover and first pages; slight Aging To Pages. >> Several pages are coming apart from the spine, particularly the color plates as shown (see pictures.) There are slight tears to a few pages, as shown, but otherwise the pages are all intact. All of the color plates are beautiful and retain their original vibrancy despite the book's age. There is no visible water damage or foxing to the pages; they are clean and mostly off-white (with some exhibiting a very soft yellowish hue from age.) There is minor damage visible to the upper-back corner of the spine, as shown. Of Special Note: This is NOT the Rare Variant Endpapers with llght olive green background, of which Bienvenue reports only ONE copy known (one copy which appeared at auction In 2019). It has been brought to my attention that the color shown here is more of the standard black-and-yellow end papers, which are consistent with first editions of this publication.
