Tales from the Thousand and One Nights, deluxe copy but without the signed limitation leaf, with 12 tipped-in colour plates by E.J.Detmold, captioned tissue guards, foxing at beginning and end particularly endpapers, half-title & final leaf of text with slight spotting to fore-edge of plate mounts opposite pp.160, 184, 200 & 224, original pictorial vellum, gilt, spine gilt, t.e.g., others uncut, one or two small spots to upper cover and covers very slightly splayed but still an excellent bright copy, 4to, [1924]. Detmold's rarest work and the highlight of any Detmold book collection . The deluxe edition was limited to 100 copies, each signed by the artist, but apparently the publisher printed more than 100 sets and so bound a few in the deluxe binding but without a limitation leaf, as this copy.
