Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Not relevant. Souvenir of Mount Athos; no publisher or date shown but assumed to be around the 1920s; oblong format, 255 x 185mm; 30 leaves of thick coated card, each with one or two images on the versos of the leaves, the rectos left blank; captions are in Greek and French; red fabric covered boards, titled gilt; the front pastedown has a bookplate claiming "Russian Edition of the Panteleimonos Monastery" . . . . . The cover of the book is in a sad state. It appears to have been inundated on around 20% of the front cover. This has partly washed out the colouring, bobbled the cloth, stained the internal hinge area at the beginning and on the first leaf and broken the hinge. With the exception of some adherence at the foot of the opening contents page the image pages comprising the interior of the book are firm and in good condition as also is the back cover - hence poor to fair overall. Bell, Nancy (translator); Traill, Henry Duff (Introduction) (illustrator). …
