Sobre este item
London: Macmillan and Co, 1883. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. A collection of nonsense verse, including "Phantasmagoria" and the complete "Hunting of the Snark". 12mo: xii, 214, [1], [1] p. with 65 illustrations by Arthur B. Frost and 9 by Henry Holiday. Original green cloth binding, with gilt stamping. Typical toning to the frontispiece and title page, with some light foxing to the prefatory and concluding leaves. Period bookplate and previous owner's pencil signature to the front endpaper, with a clipped bookseller's description (Goodspeed, 1941) tipped in on the front flyleaf. The spine is darkened a touch, with some mild wear to the corners and tips; otherwise very good.
