Generally a very good copy of the scarce large paper edition. "The contrast between these two editions is striking; the large-paper is fully two inches taller and nearly that much deeper; also it is thicker because it is printed on a heavier and better grade of paper.

The large-paper edition is said to have been limited to fifty copies." (Wood). . Seller Inventory # 62008
