This volume presents 28 plates of jewels designed by Dali, with photographs by Philip Roedel and captions by the artist. The book is in very good condition with very slight rubbing at the head and tail of the spine. Corners are square and pages are crisp, clean and unmarked. The slipcase has some general soiling, a water stain on the back open edge, and closed one inch tears at the top and bottom of the the opening. This is the 1959 first edition.
