Description

8vo., First Edition, with plates, some light offsetting from fold-ins to free endpapers; maroon cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. With the separately printed errata slip mounted facing text. Bright, crisp copy of the original edition of the investigation into Piltdown Man - arguably the greatest archaeological hoax in Britain of the twentieth century. Working with the author, Le Gros Clark and Kenneth Oakley were the trio responsible for detecting and finally exposing the fraud in 1953. SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION.
