Small quarto. Original vellum, titles to spine and front cover gilt, three-line gilt border on front cover, top edge gilt, others untrimmed, pictorial endpapers. Colour frontispiece and 11 coloured plates with captioned tissue guards, black and white illustrations in the text, by Rackham. Spine nicked at head, old pale stain at foot of back cover (with only very slight discolouration to a few pages). A very good copy.
