About This Item
London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1950. Hardcover with price clipped dust jacket, ix + 102 pages, plus black-and-white illustrations; gently used copy with only very light shelf wear to cover edges, light bumps to cover corners and spine ends, but tight in binding, all text pages very clean and unmarked, flawed primarily by faded old discolouration to the front cover and spine ends caused possibly by intense sun fading due to the fragmentary DJ, but more probably by exposure to moisture although no staining is visible inside. ; the remains of the DJ consist of roughly three quarters of the spine and front panel and all of the front flap, the remains now in a professional archival quality mylar protector. See also our listings for the very scarce Constable's Clouds: Paintings and Cloud Studies by John Constable, Edited by Edward Morris for the National Galleries of Scotland, and for Herbert Tompkins' 1906 classic In Constable's Country (with many reproductions from his paintings). . First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good -/Poor.
