Leipzig: Bernhard Tauchnitz, 1902. Half-Leather. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. The head of the spine is damaged, with loss, and has been repaired with sticky tape (Argh). Removing it would cause more damage. There's a small ink stain towards the tail of the spine and the edges are chipped, though not badly. Internally there are remnant bits of paper, possibly from a label, on the front paste down, else the book is pristine. A near fine copy in good boards.
