Description

First Edition. Folio, 13" x 8", bound in antique full paneled calf, the spine with raised band separating the compartments, red morocco lettering label gilt, the covers with double blind filleted borders surrounding and inner panel enclosing a central panel elaborately roll-tooled in blind, the outer panel with corner pieces and filleted rules in blind. (xl), 646, + (2) Table pp. A fine copy with the Table, which is often missing, bound in at end, some mellowing and aging to the leaves as would be expected, but still crisp and clean and unpressed, the binding strong and very well preserved with very little evidence of age or use, the half-title laid onto a larger sheet.
