Descrizione

Sm. 8vo., First Edition, with a frontispiece, page edges lightly browned (as usual); original brown wrappers printed in black, sewed as issued, covers mildly dust-soiled else a very good, crisp copy. Published by W H Smith for their bookbinding department. In this copy the postcard has been removed but the gummed addressed label is present. A fragile but important item in binding history. Douglas Cockerell was at this time 'Controller of Bindery' for W.H. Smith, and subsequently one of the first and greatest of the craftsman binders. In this condition a rare survival.
