Sobre este item
Philadelphia: J.B. Lippincott, 1924. First U.S. Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo., 412pp. Beautiful First US Edition of this remarkably well-researched chronicle of the origins, composition and use of poisons throughout history both in literature, nature and criminal use. Bound in red cloth with titles and decoration stamped in black on front board and spine. brown cloth with titles in gilt. Square, tight and clean throughout with very minor wear to spine ends and tips. No toning or foxing though there is some light scattered underlining in ink and pencil. Equally attractive, and quite uncommon, unclipped pictorial dust-jacket, ($3.50), has some mild edge-wear and soiling to the rear panel. Spine mildly toned. Still fresh and bright with no chipping, creases or tears. A very pretty and well-preserved collectable copy and scarce in such nice condition.
