Description
This is a very good set, virtually mint, with some faint discoloration to the cloth only, else fine, including the individual leather frontis spine labels.
A superb and deeply nostalgic two-volume memory book of London’s legendary antiquarian bookstores, circa 1971. Most are now gone. Churchill knew them well.
