About This Item
London: John Gifford, Ltd, 1970. First Edition. Burgundy Boards. Very Good Plus/Near Fine. 8vo. 176pp. The text is accompanied by plates of various rugs in colour & b/w. There is a carpet sellers book plate to the front end paste down. The head of the spine has been slightly bumped & there is a slight split to the front board, measuring 4.6cm - the board remains complete & this is concealed by the dust wrapper. The book is nonetheless lovely. The dust wrapper has not been price clipped & has perhaps the slightest of shelf wear, otherwise a super wrapper. A lovely copy of this first edition.
