A study of the Classical Stage of Japan.
London, Macmillan and Co. Ltd., 1916
A remarkable book jointly written by Pound after Fenollosa's original conception and the first substantial book to be published in English on the subject. Gallup states that there were less than a 1000 copies of the UK issue.
First edition, first impression; 8vo; wartime paper stock browning as all too often, title page substantially foxed from the tissue guard, pages entirely uncut; publisher's blue cloth, device to upper board in black, titles to spine gilt; a very nice copy with just a little, differential soiling to the spine.
Gallup A13a.
