About this Item

First and only edition. Book cover is good to very good condition while item is internally fine. Brittle, over-sized card covers are still intact with chipping, wear and toning to edges. Previous owner name neatly printed in ink to cover. While the awl means three additional holes to the page signatures, the binder did a great job, finishing with a cute yarn bow at spine. With no copyright date it is assumed these drawings were reproduced in the same year as the Beothic's voyage (1927) or else the year after. A beautiful book full of plate drawings by one of Canada's greatest artists. Each plate is signed within the plate with the exception of the woodblock image on the front cover. Green boards, unpaginated, 17 plates plus cover label, complete with map, initials and title vignette. Satisfaction guaranteed. Photos always available on request. Shipped in a fitted, padded box.
