Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Paris, Printed at Lecram Press [Privately Published by The author], [1929 and 1930, first issue of the first edition]. Quarto, four sections paginated continuously, comprising xxxii, 436 pages with numerous illustrations plus a colour plate depicting the lamen (magical pendant) of the author (tipped in on page 1), a black and white plate of the signs of the grades (loosely inserted between pages 374 and 375), and a colophon leaf in the first and last sections. Overlapping salmon-pink thick textured wrappers lettered and decorated in black on the front panels; all edges uncut; spines a little sunned and rubbed; head of two joints (and the foot of one of them) cracked but stabilised; some covers slightly marked; trifling loss to silverfish to the bottom margin of five leaves at the beginning of the first section, and the top margin of about ten leaves and the rear cover of the last section (with slight and inoffensive surface loss to some covers); minimal signs of age and use; a very good set, rare in any condition.
