Seller ID   705

c. 1910, 4to. This is a gorgeous copy in the rare and original DUSTJACKET with one of Dulac‘s plates mounted to the front in near fine condition! Original richly gilt decorated red cloth in bright condition, no scuff, no chip, very clean and radiant. Bottom right corner a little bumped else book is fine in a near fine DJ. You barely find DJs like this from 20 years ago let alone 1910, with only a couple of tiny chips to the edges. Interior is as new, no marks of any kind, no foxing, no browning, stunning condition. Pages are clean and fresh with sharp corners, barely read. One of the finest gift books of the last century in very uncommonly fine condition. Fifty tipped-in colour plates with tissue guards. French born Edmund Dulac was one of the most prolific and most impressive illustrators of the early 20th century and but he is best known for this book. A gem. E-mail for more pictures.
