About This Item

EX-LIBRARY REBOUND FOR LIBRARY CIRCULATION and showing the usual marks and indications thereof. Pocket removed from the rear endpaper and some other library plate removed from the front free endpaper. Removed from circulation and discarded. Else, Very Near Fine in Very Good DJ: The Book shows only faint shelf soiling along the bottom edge of the boards; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. The DJ shows moderate wear to the extremities; sparse loss to chips and tiny nicks; mild rubbing to the panels; the backstrip is lightly sunned, but the titles and designs thereon remain legible; the price has been clipped. Remains a handsome, little used reading copy: clean, sturdy, and quite presentable in a moderately worn, but intact DJ. NOT a Remainder or Book-Club. 8vo. (8.25 x 6 x 1.5 inches). xv. 589 pages. Translated from the Italian by Lovett F. Edwards. Weight: 2 pounds, 1.8 ounces. First Edition Thus [1958]; First Printing, so stated.
