Their aspiration was for their publications to be aligned with the same aesthetic standards as the private press movement. They were unusual as they used a small Albion press to design the books but had them printed by commercial printers. In doing so books with the quality of a fine-press were produced but available to a wider audience at lower prices. In the original publisher's vellum wraps. Externally generally smart with light discolouration as is usual with a vellum binding. Internally firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Slipcase is a little worn with rubbing to the extremities in a very good condition. Very Good Indeed The Nonesuch Press hardcover

The playful astrological ornaments and colorful stencils make this fine translation especially charming. Nonesuch Press unknown
