Description
Faux stippled cloth over usual cloth spine, lettered gilt (but unusually dulled). lx+478pp., 38pp. Grammar guide bound in back with original covers and designed to be detached with a severable thread. Interesting variant binding reminds us that this reprint was published in the immediate post-war period using inferior glue and card. Therefore scarce.
Internally complete and clean but due to materials of the time all segments detached from spine. However, no loss.
Interesting and unusual 1912 edition issued after war - in 1919. Last English edition in series published in Leipzig by Breitkopf & Härtel.
Hinrichsen E233b.
