Good ++ condition of a scarce first edition, full of beautiful illustrations. Some wear to cover and spine, small patch of fraying to bottom of spine. Endpapers are toned with some very light foxing; hinges are firm and un-cracked; inscription to foretitle page dated 1934; internally clean and bright with only very occasional thumbing marks. Illustrated with colour plates as well as in-line illustrations. Please see photos for further detail.
