Descripción

First Edition and one of only 100 Large-Paper Copies of a total edition of only 600 copies. SIGNED BY THE PUBLISHER AND SPECIALLY BOUND, MOST PROBABLY FOR PRESENTATION. With a profusion of hand-colored woodcut plates after Joseph Crawhall, in chapbook style, and with bound-in cloth pockets labeled in black. 8vo, in very beautiful contemporary full red-orange calf, likely a binding for presentation purposes, the boards are elaborately decorated with a very wide and exquisitly detailed borders of stylized thistles, the spine with central gilt tooling gilt, depicting fish and tackle bags within double-gilt ruled compartments separated by gilt ruled raised bands, two compartments with gilt lettering, board edges and turn-ins gilt tooled in floral motif, page edges untrimmed, green endpapers. 112, [8], pp. A very handsome copy of an especially elusive book, lavishly bound, likely a presentation copy and unique thus, the binding well preserved and sturdy with some light evidence of age or use, some general mellowing, the text retains the original pockets and black leaves, all as pristine. A bit of mild offsetting from the cloth pockets.
