Description: Deluxe American large-paper edition, limited to only 50 copies signed by Rackham. This is the only American limited edition of this title, never issued as a typical American limited edition. Very rare in this edition in such nice condition. 12.75'' x 10.25''. Original full limp suede binding with yapp edges, gilt-ornamented spine. Top edge gilt, other edges uncut. Moire endpapers. Printed on fine paper. Featuring 40 tipped-in color plates by Rackham with guards plus a profusion of full page and smaller black and whites. Translated by Mrs. Edgar Lucas. 325, [1] pages. Repair to rear endpaper, faint crease on corner of frontispiece. Some wear to suede on edges, as is inevitable with this type of binding. Remarkably sound and clean.
