About this Item

Very Good pictorial cloth boards in beige and rust with a Greek Warrior print designed by Alexander H. Williamson, and with dark brown titling to the spine and front cover. The head and tail of the spine are slightly 'pushed' due to storage - but covers are VERY clean, tight and bright, having been protected by the d/j. In the original publisher's pictorial dust-jacket. The front flap is price-clipped. The top edge is a little creased and the inner edges discoloured. The base colour of the d/j is a lime green, the d/j spine is slightly faded, but all titling, etc, is clear. NO damage. The edges are a little darkened/dusty here and there, but the overall the d/j is Very Good, and is now in a new protective clear - removable - bookfilm plastic cover and looks Very Good. The page fore-edges/edges have some very scattered foxing (tan spots). ALL hinges tight. Internally fine pictorial endpapers reproducing the Greek Warrior pattern from the covers. No Inscriptions or Marks.
