Jeppe, Carl : The Kaleidoscopic Transvaal

Juta & Company, 1906

For its age, it is remarkably well preserved. The boards are rubbed, edge worn and marked, and the spine dis-discoloured, however, the gold gilt remains bright and cheerful. Internally, the front and back end pages are very tanned. There is foxing throughout the text, but the pages are whole and complete. The binding remains tight and strong. A charming little book for its age. JV. K.. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: No Jacket

JEPPE, Carl : The Kaleidoscopic Transvaal

J.C Juta, 1906

A near fine copy (slight fading through d.w.) in the excessively scarce vg++ d.w., spine faded but still legible, very shallow chipping to extremities. Although a relatively common title, this is only the second copy we have seen with dustwrapper in over 35 years.
