London: B.T. Batsford LTD, 1935. Cloth. Near Fine. The uncommon 1935 1st edition, limited to only 250 copies. Re-bound in an institutional --though still handsome-- red cloth, with bright gilt-lettering and rule along the spine. Also, new endsheets and pastedowns, as well as new headbands. The result is a stronger binding and a sturdy, very clean example of the 1935 original printing. Tight and Near Fine and, internally, all-but-immaculate, with no writing or markings of any kind to the the text or to the plates. Folio, top-edge gilt. 116 pgs. of text, 164 crisp gravure plates.
