Four
handsome gilt three-quarter leather bindings. Spines in six compartments w/ gilt
title and raised bands. Great shelf appearance. Three-quarter leather boards
with marbled paper - the paper is shimmery in green and gold; boards are fresh,
bright and clean with virtually no flaws. Bindings are tight and sound. t.e.g.,
other edges deckled.
Text
blocks are mostly very clean w/ very scattered light foxing confined mostly to
the first and last few pages. Appears to include the original paper wraps that
were issued w/ the books prior to binding. Text in French. Bookplate on inside
front board, "Albert N. Connett Jr." Lovely marbled endpapers in
green.
In
all, a handsome example of contemporary fine bindings, the shimmery paper
covered boards are very unique and attractive. Limited editions.
Books
measure c. 5 7/8" x 7 3/4"
