Very nice book decorated in Art Deco style by Robert Anning Bell. Numerous illustrations by him throughout the book and on the cover and the endpapers. The illustrations are all black and white drawings, some full page, some in the text and and some at the start of Acts. Printed on good quality roughcut paper. The cover is very shabby, discoloured, marked, brown marks spattered across the back,, tears at top and bottom of the spine, edgewear and corner-bumping.. The endpapers are yellowed. Cracked hinge between front cover and free endpaper and other cracked hinges throughout but book is holding together. Tear in the paper at the beginning of Act 3 with no loss. Small 1cm tears at the bottom corners of all the pages at the spine end with corners bent in. The pages of the text throughout are clean and bright and binding is firm enough to make book easily readable.
