Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. First edition. 1st 2011. Slightly better than very good condition with no wrapper.

Within ten years, however, this last word in luxury was to become redundant, spurned by the post-war age. Turquoise boards, silver title to spine. B/w photos. Light browning to page edges. A little edge-creasing to wrapper. Packaged with care and promptly dispatched!
