Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. 2nd Edition. First Printing of the Second Edition ('Limited'). [Date from the copyright page.] Personal Note to the Reader, Explanatory Introduction (First Edition), Preface (Second Edition), Argument, Concordant Index of Deciphered Work, Notes, Bibliographical References, Innumerable Illustrations (Frontispiece, Plate, "Fac-Simile" Original Title Pages, Ciphers, Tables, etc.). Pagination: Part I---[xviii], [1]-48; [49-103]; Part II---iv, [1]-368 followed by [15] pages with Appendix and ads. (That is, 508 pages total.) The maroon cloth with its impressive gilt lettering on upper board and spine is near fine---with just the merest touch of rubbing on the spine ends and corner tips; and a few tiny superficial spots. The interior is bright, crisp, and clean despite toning to the edges of the patterned endpapers; a good many pages still unopened. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] Top edge thickly gilt; other edges uncut. The dust jacket, with printed spine, is still here protecting the book nicely, but is sunned, stained, chipped---and not worth an image. "Since the issue of the first small edition of [this work] in April, 1899, (limited to private circulation) the work of deciphering the hidden story found in the old original books has gone steadily forward, and the results are now presented with some gaps filled, and chronological order of writing much more closely followed through the increased number of volumes to which access has been made possible."---from the Preface to the Second Edition. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking. Please NOTE this is a heavy volume and may incur extra shipping costs.
