Japanese Flower Arrangement [Ike-Bana] Applied to Western Needs 1914 Mary Averill First edition, 2nd printing Illustrated vintage hardcover
This is a "good" to "good plus" vintage illustrated hardcover in cloth wrapped spine with paper wrapped boards, 88 line drawing illustrations on the topic, published by John Lane Co. in 1914, 218 pages, color frontispiece with rice paper protector.
First edition, second printing, being just 3 months after the first printing, as stated on the title page verso. This book is complete, and has a solid binding, with at least two pages disconnected: the frontispiece with its protector and page 169/170. As such, those pages' outer edges are chipped. The boards show a fair amount of edge wear, with all of the corners' wrapping paper worn through to the underlying boards. There is no writing, no folded pages, the text block closes tightly and is square. This book will need to be handled carefully as the pages are fairly brittle with age. There is a decorative ex-libris book plated affixed to the front pastedown and a diminutive bookseller label on the lower edge of the back pastedown - "Brentano's Booksellers and Stationers New York" - which is fun. Fair amount of wear on the head and tail of the spine cloth, gilt lettering on the spine is fairly crisp and complete. Not a perfect book, but still very charming and content is not impacted. See accompanying images for further condition details. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged.
