A superb copy of a very collectable book. This is an Eleventh impression (overall) published in 1959, in its original and correct Eleventh impression dustjacket.

The book and dustjacket are both in Very Good Plus condition. The only faults are a few small spots of foxing on the last couple of pages of the book. The maps show no foxing, clean and bright, with the number "1220" printed at the top of the first map.

No previous owners names or any other markings. Very small chips to the corners of the folds, one small tear at the bottom inner fold on the front, very little loss on any of the areas.
The books cover shows some light soiling, with the spine showing some light tanning. The corners are lightly bumped, but no wear or fraying whatsoever. A beautiful, clean, collectable copy.

Very hard to find a pre 1960 copy in this Very Good Plus condition. Custom open ended slipcase included with the book.

Digital photo's available, inquire if interested.
