About This Item
First written in 1814, these Persian tales are beautifully illustrated by Cyrus Leroy Baldridge who traveled to Persia to sketch his illustrations. The binding has very few flaws, some bumping to spine ends and corners and mild fading along top edge. Hinge is tight and pages are bright and clean. Owners nameplate of FFEP. Dust jacket has some small chips and closed tears to spine ends and edges and some creases to lower left front corner. Protected in mylar cover, not price clipped. Overall a very nice book.
