A propos de cet article

ELIZABETH PIPER SIGNED ETCHINGS : 12 unnumbered leaves of plates : illustrations ; [4], 12, [24] pages. Publishers original binding in half leather. Unfortunaley, these covers have been damaged by water at some point. The rear board has a large circular area { see images to follow soon } of damp damage, this has penetrated the rear most pages to include the margin of Engraving No 12. There is the faintest of evidence to plate No 11. All else, the text block and the first 10 enravings are fine. All remain securely cased. The upper panel has an area of damage to cloth at the foredge. The book itself is very uncommon and I am pleased to offer this, due to the aforementioned at a much reduced price. Engravings of this quality do command good prices. Not only do we have the block, but all 12 Engravings/Etchings.
