Description:
New York: The Cortes Society, 1917. Hardcover. First issue of this translation, a handsome small hardbound, buff boards bearing two-color title-label under brown buckram backstrip, also has a [spine]-title label. Find a small but very bad impact dent to tail of rear cover, causing a deep fissure in the buckram'd cover and severe wrinkles in the latter half of all text-leaf margins. Corner-tips are also damaged. Item looks good in a general way, physically tight and square, but within has another sort of damage: textblock was left untrimmed and signatures unopened, and there are long stretches "opened" by someone confidently ignorant of the how-to-to-its of opening connected leaves (use the flat of a table knife, close the book upon it, and pray to Caxton). Finally, both labels are dim, and the spine label also scuffed. Presentable, but a fair to good copy only. Documents and Narratives concerning the discovery and conquest of Latin America. The Cortes Society New York, number two.
