New York: privately printed for William Godwin Inc, 1933. First edition thus (hardback). 8vo (24cm by 16cm), [iv], 270pp. 7 plates from etchings by Clara Tice. Original purple cloth. This book is marred by a substantial bump to the foot of the spine, which means that it is only in fair condition overall, but the pages are clean and the book is tightly bound.
