First Edition (First published in June, 1963) Here is an interesting story for someone who might find it to be an interesting story. I believe these to be the facts. A man named Ladislav Kolda creates a publishing house, so to speak, in 1963, which he names Nardon Press. He publishes his first book titled The Journal Of A Voyage To Lisbon by Henry Fielding which I believe was originally published in 1755. Here's something that came up when I Googled his name (this is obviously the translation): 'MORAVIAN LIBRARY 1955 - 1958; 1983 - 1983, exile publishing, Czechoslovak publishing abroad Moravian Library was founded in 1955 in New York film producer Ladislav Kolda (1903-1983) with an excess of ambition horizon of most of the former exile production. His action was accompanied by the desire for high-level content and form of publications issued, the original edition but has disappeared in 1958 after the release of only six publications. After sporadic English book published in 1963, marked Nardon Press (Henry Fielding: The Journal of a Voyage to Lisbon) resumed issuing Kolda probably not until the '80s, when alone again printed and published a small private prints, mostly labeled Publishing Downstairs Studio 27 ; in 1983. There he published three volumes edition bibliophile blue books.' So it would seem Kolda's Nardon Press published one book and then basically folded. When I searched for books under its name only a couple of copies of this title came up. No other. The copy here for sale is unique by virtue of the publisher's signed inscription on the half title page. It reads 'For Donald Malcolm, godfather of the Gleaner's Library and lover of the 18th century, this first offering, with my sincere appreciation, Ladislav Kolda, August 25, 1963'. I don't know what Gleaner's Library refers to (on the copyright page under an illustration of an open book it says 'A Gleaner's Library Book, Scholars Series'). Please be certain this is Not an ex-library book. It is not. So, I'm guessing Mr. Korda came up with the idea, perhaps had a concept of creating a 'Scholars Series'. He hired a Harold E. Pagliaro who was the Assistant Professor of English at Columbia University, to 'edit with an introduction and notes'. Included with the book is a large Nardon Press card from Mr. Kolda stating that he is 'pleased to send you this complimentary copy of.' The card is in excellent condition. There is also an errata label attached to the first index page. The book is in very good condition. The front cover has a few small spots of soiling and some darkening at the margins. The spine has the same darkening. It also has small losses at both ends (3rd photo). The black lettering on the front and spine is bright and unworn. The rear cover is not soiled, but also shows some darkening at the margins. The corners and edges have very little wear. The interior of the book is in superior condition. The clean end papers are 'A New And Accurate Map Of Europe' by Eman Bowen. They are very detailed. The book is very solidly bound, absolutely no problems. And the pages are extremely clean. There may not even be a spot of soiling. There's no foxing or spotting. Excepting the publisher's inscription no one has written their name or anything else on any page in the book. There aren't any markings or attachments. I found one turned down corner and the last two pages of the index have a tiny, tiny, tiny tear off their middle edge. I mean tiny. That's about it. If you've read this description to this end maybe you do find it an interesting story. …

Description de la boutique
Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
