Hellenistic civilisation binding (1 resultados)

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. This unique and utterly classic library binding was commissioned from The Government Printing Office, in Mauritius, for the bibliophile Sir Robert Scott. Sir Robert was the Governor of Mauritius from March 1954 until July 1959. He had books especially bound for him, and they are exemplary. Such elegant and beautifully crafted works are expensive, and to commission this standard today would be at least three or four times the price of this one. Fine bindings are highly sought after collectables. For those seeking unique books, built to last, such books impart a refined impression to a home. If the book is also a timeless classic it becomes a permanent keepsake. These gorgeous books are made to last for centuries. Sir Robert has neatly signed this on the front end paper.
