The Poems of Percy Shelley c.1974 Vintage cloth bound hardcover in slipcase with club insert
$28.00
This is a super crispy "near fine" vintage hardcover in decorated blue cloth wraps. The endpapers are decorated and there is a cloth head and tail band in the binding. Spine and hinges are tight. No writing, no loose, torn or folded pages. One small, light scuff or mark on the upper edge of the outer block is the only thing keeping me from saying that this grades as "fine".
The matching tan paper wrapped board slipcase is intact, no splits, no dents in corners or edges. Relatively uniform in color all around. One side does have two nickel to quarter size stains - looks like wine. Really gorgeous book. See accompanying images for complete contents and complete condition details. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged, fully insured.
