Hardcover, with dustjacket and publisher's slipcase box. First edition, limited to 1250 copies. Color frontis, 48 plates. In near fine to fine+, clean tight sound condition, very nice indeed. Books look like new when the dust jackets are removed.Volumes measure 6 1/2" x 9 1/4." We happily accept credit cards directly and PayPal. We also accept checks and foreign bank wire transfers over $500. Please note: All the items we offer are guaranteed to be old and authentic as described. We do not handle reproductions or fakes and we stand behind everything we sell. SHIPPING TERMS: For Domestic shipping, we can usually ship single books or maps worth under $100 for around $5 if you ask us- happy to do it for you. If you want trackable insured UPS, they charge much more, and the automated calculator on the page gives you the rate. IF YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE US, PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL YOU GET AN INVOICE FROM US. OFTEN THE AUTOMATED eBay SHIPPING QUOTE IS WRONG. The US post office has recently dramatically raised shipping rates and eliminated cheap surface mail outside the US. Thus, it is usually no longer possible to ship books outside the US for under $12. The same is true for maps rolled in tubes, the minimum is normally $12 and neiher of these low rates work for items worth over $50, which have to be trackable or insured (Paypal rules). We will only make an exception to this if you email us stating you assume 100% of the shipping risk and leave us feedback before we ship the item. Then we will ship expensive items normal airmail and email you a pic of the shipping receipt if you wish as proof of sending. We are on your side and trying to ship items the cheapest possible way which also complies with Paypal rules, so please do not blame us for shipping quotes which seem expensive- we cannot do anything about it and are as frustrated as you are that the post office has raised their rates so much (seems to be true for post offices around the world actually). International Buyers : All items worth more than $50 must be insured or registered (see exceptions above). Please do not ask us to ship valuable items by ordinary airmail, forcing us to assume the risk for you. Paypal rules require international parcels be trackable to protect both parties. U.S. Buyers : For street addresses in the continental U.S. we prefer UPS ground service. Insurance is included in our quote. If you have a P.O. box, we'll use the Postal Service. If the value of your purchase is less than $50 and it does not weigh too much we can usually ship it by media mail for $5. This applies to U.S. addresses only. We regret we cannot use your Fedex Account, as we do not have an account with them and the paperwork/ phone calls to reach them are very time consuming. _________________________________________________________________ We accept payment in U.S. dollars by PayPal, credit/debit card, wire transfer and domestic money order or checks. Please, NO FOREIGN CHECKS. International wire transfers cost us a $10 bank fee and we must tfore add this $10 fee to the total if you wish to wire funds for totals under $500. If your total is over $500 we will waive this fee. Prompt payment within 10 days is required re: your eBay agreement and very much appreciated. Folks, please do not bid unless you intend to follow through quickly - Thanks! We hope you find our terms friendly and reasonable. To help you feel more confident in dealing with us, we'd like to offer the following brief reassurance: We are full time antiquarian book dealers who treat our all clients with respect. We run our own website, a retail shop by appointment, and an active trade on eBay. You can trust us to be reliable and honest. We do not play dishonest game... read more
