About This Item
New York, NY Thames & Hudson, 2003. Paperback First Edition Thus in the USA (2003), First Printing stated. First Edition Thus in the USA (2003), First Printing stated. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint stress-creasing to the backstrip; the very mildest rubbing to the panels; a bit of faint smudging to the top edge of the text block. The binding leans ever so slightly, while remaining perfectly secure; the text is clean. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing a couple of minor, unobtrusive flaws. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (9.85 x 7.65 x 1.05 inches). 368 pages. Profusely illustrated with 432 color photographs by Alex S. MacLean. Language: English. Weight: 3 pounds, 1 ounce. Paperback: Heavy Pictorial Wraps with DJ-like flaps. This is a large, heavy book. Domestic Priority and International customers should expect a request for additional shipping charges which will reflect the actual shipping cost to ship this book to your destination. We will be fair with you; we will charge actual cost plus the usual few cents to cover packaging costs.
