hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Publication: Harmondsworth, Penguin Books Ltd, 1953 Formatting: Small 8vo, pp. 31, [1], 16 plates. Condition Report: Very Good. The binding remains remarkably firm, square, and entirely sound, with the publisher's original pictorial boards maintaining their bright, vivid colouring, showing only minor, expected rubbing at the extremities of the spine and corners. Internally, the text block is exceptionally crisp and unmarked, though a faint, sporadic degree of foxing and age-toning is present to the page edges and preliminary leaves, which is entirely typical for King Penguin titles of this era. The scarce original paper dust jacket is present and appropriately mirrors the brightness of the underlying boards; it exhibits light rubbing to the hinges, minor shelf-wear at the head and tail, and some gentle spotting to the rear panel and inner flaps, but remains highly presentable and entirely intact. Catalogue Note: This is a true first edition, published as volume 64 in the distinguished and highly collectable King Penguin series. The volume is notably illustrated with sixteen superb full-colour plates reproducing sections of key pre-Columbian codices, beautifully printed by John Swain & Son Ltd to accompany the text. While the King Penguin series was produced in significant numbers, Magic Books from Mexico is widely regarded among collectors and dealers as one of the more elusive and desirable titles in the sequence. Locating a copy in such bright condition, complete with its original, unclipped, and corresponding dust wrapper, has become increasingly scarce on the open market. An enchanting and visually striking introduction to the lost pictographic codices of the Aztecs. Authored by C. A. Burland, an esteemed researcher of pre-Columbian manuscripts, this concise volume illuminates the folding bark-paper books that survived the Spanish conquest. Within these pages, Burland explores how ancient Mexico recorded its history, ritual calendars, and complex mythology, bringing to light a forgotten chapter in the history of writing and celebrating a virile artistic tradition worthy of profound study.
