About this Item

RUMBOLD, Gilbert.
The Wayside Book.
Written and illustrated by Gilbert Rumbold.

London: Methuen & Co. Ltd, 1934.
First Edition.

Octavo (8vo). Original publisher?s cloth, with dust jacket.

Condition:
Good. Solid, square boards with a tight and secure binding. The text block is intact and internally clean, with no inscriptions, annotations, or markings. The dust jacket is present and complete, showing shelf wear to the upper and lower spine, with general edge wear consistent with age and sunning but no major losses. Overall, a sound and attractive copy of this first edition.

Notes:
The Wayside Book is a charmingly written and illustrated work by Gilbert Rumbold, reflecting the interwar British tradition of nature writing and illustration. First editions in original dust jackets are increasingly uncommon, particularly in sound condition, and this copy remains a pleasing example.
