Offsetting to front free endpaper as usual. Edges of cover slightly faded else a near fine copy. In 1938 Jane Grabhorn in partnership with W. M. Roth and Jane Swinerton set up The Colt Press. With the advent of the War the partnership was dissolved and from 1941 all Colt Press book while designed by Jane were printed by the Grabhorn Press. We believe this title to be the last published and printed by the "original" Colt Press. The frontispiece portrait of Omai is from the painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds. "The Polynesian Omai was a great success in London - he seemed to embody Jean Jacques Rousseau's concept of the 'noble savage' much in vogue at the time of Omai's arrival in England.
