First edition, 12mo, pp. 52 plus colophon. Includes illustrations. Very Good in the publisher's tan cloth with brown spine lettering and brown upper board decorative device. Price-clipped dust jacket Fair only, with erosion at crown of spine, nicks at a couple of the flap fold points, and soiling on front cover that shows a bit more readily than if publisher had chosen a darker color.
