Also included are bindings executed for Pepys, Charles II and others. Each of the thirty bindings is described in detail and illustrated with a full-page plate, some in color. One of 600 copies; this copy not numbered. Near fine; slight curve to the covers; interior pages and plates fine, light bump to lower corners.
