Technical description

Buckram cased version not traced or examined, presumably like ZJd and ZKd: demy 8o: trimmed 8½" × 5½" . . . ; printed dust-jacket.

Note

B.L. catalogue states their copy is no.4 of 50 on mould-made paper, specially bound; Curwen library copy was un-numbered; because vol.3, ZOk, was published after 1955 it fell outside the scope of my 1963 handlist but has been added during the current revision to complete the set; for vol. 1 seeZJd; vol.2 ZKd.
