Description

The first reprint of the publisher's second edition. With tipped-in colour frontispiece and six tipped-in colour plates by Rene Bull, and a profusion of black & white illustrations all throughout the text. Tall 8vo, publisher's original green cloth, decorated and lettered in black on the upper cover and spine, the upper cover also featuring a colour pastedown by Bull. x, 299 pp. A handsome copy, espcially so for this war time issued work. The green cloth bright and unfaded, just a little mellowing, the hinges firm, the colourplates all very fine, the text clean.

Edizione: an elusive and rarely seen printing of this beautifully illustrated classic. with the wonderful illustrations of rene bull. among all the early printings this is one of the most difficult of bull’s books to obtain. bull's arabian nights provides us with a timeless classic married to exquisite illustrations in both colour and black and white. many of the fine black and white illustrations are very large and nearly full-page.
