The binding and cover illustration were done by Rein van Looy, which also makes the book graphically interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3153\" data-end=\"3479\"\u003eThe copy shows visible signs of wear. The spine is damaged and partly detached, but still present. The book block itself is in better condition than the binding suggests: pages are complete and show normal aging without severe damage. This makes the book still excellent to read and at the same time remarkably decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3481\" data-end=\"3636\"\u003eAn authentic pre-war book with character, ideal for lovers of literary history, interwar editions, or books with visible traces of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3638\" data-end=\"3656\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3638\" data-end=\"3656\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"3657\" data-end=\"3892\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"3657\" data-end=\"3680\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3659\" data-end=\"3680\"\u003eAuthor: Pearl S.
