About This Item
Leipzig, Kurt Wolff Verlag, 1915 (Copyright indicates, correctly, 1915, title page 1916, which has been cause of considerable confusion). Octavo, red boards, cloth covered spine and corners, 500 pp. Decorative title on cover and spine, ribbon, top-edge gilt. No printing date, which indicates this is the true first edition (after 100 numbered copies). Printed on mold-made paper. An excellent copy, some mild rubbing and faint spots on cover, spine a little toned, else fine. Nice little bookplate in the shape of a postal stamp on flyleaf. No foxing, just the slightest toning at top edge of paper. Ships from Mexico City by DHL or FedEx, insured. More pictures available upon request
