Bound in the publisher's original half-vellum with cream cloth boards, the binding remains tight and structurally sound. The vellum spine and corners exhibit light, characteristic spotting and mild handling wear typical of this material, while the cloth boards remain relatively bright with only minor surface marks. The text block is square, and the extremities show light shelf-wear. Internally, the pages present well, maintaining a crisp appearance with strong hinges. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"676\"\u003eCatalogue Note\u003c\/b\u003e: This privately printed first edition was produced in a limited run of just 500 copies\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"0,1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003csup class=\"superscript\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"0,2\"\u003e, making it a scarce title on the open market.
