Translated from the Spanish by Henry Thomas. Initial letters designed by Alfred Fairbank, printed in red. One of 175 copies (this no. 125). 8vo., original red morocco with geometric Moorish design in blind on both sides, gilt lettered spine, t.e.g., others uncut. [Newtown], The Gregynog Press, 1938.
A very good copy with some slight offsetting from the inner edges to front free endpapers and with mild fading to the spine. The Moorish style interlacing strapwork design on the binding is probably by W. Charles Thomas, the translator’s brother, who was responsible for the similarly-styled binding on The Star of Seville in 1935.
