Descripción

4to., First Edition, with coloured frontispiece (original tissue guard present), fine photographic plates lightly toned in sepia, numerous illustrations in the text, large folding coloured map in pocket at end and pictorial endpapers; original maroon boards, upper board lettered in gilt, black cloth back lettered in gilt, red top, decorative endpapers printed in red, a very good, bright, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper. With the trade ticket of City Bookshop, Guildford, on front paste-down, and engraved pictorial bookplate of Victor Woolven on half-title. Elegant copy of the first impression of the third of GWR's three great themed travel guides of the mid-1920s (the others being James's Abbeys and Beer's Cathedrals). Although greatly popular and many times reissued, copies of the original editions in this condition are actually quite elusive. VERY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. See Burdett Wilson, pp. 91-3.
