About This Item
Tokyo: Ogawa Seibundo, 1918. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Very Good/N/A. First Edition in English. Stated 1918 to title page with 1919 on cover which is standard to this edition. All further printings show year published. No endpapers issued for this copy, so possibly different state or early printing from same year of publication. In red cloth blind stamped to covers and with gilt to type and design motif on spine. Tanning to text block from paper used. Small pale stain to rear board and a few stay marks with 'Made in Japan' sticker to rear pastedown which has a little lifting to same corner and top of hinge. Quite nice overall given the age.
