About This Item
London: London Stamp Exchange. Very Good in Fair dust jacket. 1991. First Edition (?). Hardcover. 0948130989 . A slightly 'odd' edition as this book is bound in brick coloured 'rexine' covered boards with a b/w (non pictorial) photocopied/sellotaped dustwrapper. So I think that possibly it is bound from a set of 'offcuts', or is some form of 'Remainder' as o/w the book is internally fine, with all the correct information/publication details and has obviously never been used. Illustrated in b/w and with Line-Drawings. 518 pp. NO Inscriptions or marks. Overall an Excellent clean tight and bright Hardback edition of this classic book. Looks unread/unused. ; 8vo Tall .
