SIGNED LIMITED EDITION 315 copies signed by Hillier and Nardelli. BUT although signed by the above this is not actually numbered. It does not come in the special box. ALSO this is original full maroon cloth whereas the limited edition300 copies lists leather to spine. BUT and there is a BUT to the spine there looks what appears to be a strip of red paint partially going over the gilt letterings and small trace of black to top edge of pages and red to bottom. This book weighs over 10kg and NOT suitable for export and even UK will be very expensive. I would advise to contact me first and I can send photos of spine.
