Nummer 667 of unknown number of copies -- the book was sent to all the members of the Gesellschaft der Freunde der Deutschen Bücherei. An attractive printing in terms of paper, the Fraktur font, the overall design of the page, albeit not the most uncommon edition of the work. 4to. 25 by 19.5 cm. 61 pp. With a folded sheet "Prospectus", which we think was more like a printed cover letter equivalent, with details about the book. This has printed content on the rectos only, or two unpaginated pages. Some tearing of the "dust jacket" -- the translucent wax paper that covers the patterned paper pastedown. And the tearing penetrates into the spine's interior. Also some blistering of paper pastedown on spine. Wax paper has some stains, and it has also yellowed. Interior is clean, with light age toning to leaves, and overall a very good copy. Accompanying piece of ephemera without any issues or defects. Fair ("Dust Jacket" is merely a layer of paper, separate from paper pastedown, covering boards, without flaps but secured along edges) Semi-Rigid Boards. Paper pastedown on boards and spine First Edition thus. Numbered copy -- limited edition.…

Shipping terms
The shipping cost provided automatically by ABE assumes that the item is the size of an average hardcover book. Since our stock is comprised largely of material which is bigger and heavier, we will often need to request additional shipping charges as a result. We pride ourselves on always packing safely, with the actual materials and method of packing depending on the item(s), where it is going, and with whom we are shipping. We most frequently use the post office, but on some high value items, or upon request, we may use alternatively UPS or FedEx. With the postal service, to domestic destinations with lower value items and the automatically furnished ABE shipping quote, we will usually use Media Mail; on higher value items we are partial to Priority or Express Mail. We will always seek to comply with a customer's wishes if they are communicated to us. When we seek additional shipping charges, we pass along those charges at our cost -- we do not add for handling or materials generally.
