Bound in publisher's purple textured cloth, with blind ruling to front board, publisher's logo blind stamped to front board, title in dull gilt to spine, top edge coloured dark green. In a pictorial dustjacket, with advertisements to rear cover. Boards in excellent condition with extremely limited signs of wear, endcaps pushed, corners a little rubbed, some light 'bubbling' at pastedown, tex tblock externally spotted, but bright and clean internally, frontispiece intact.
