Description: Folio Society The Travels of Marco Polo Rustichello da Pisa MINT w/Slipcase This is a 1999 printing of the 1968 edition in near perfect condition with slipcase. It looks and feels like a new and unread copy. There is a blank attached bookplate and previous owner's impression as pictured. 310 pages The wavy effect that seems to appear on the fabric part of the cover in multiple pictures is only "Moir pattern". It occurs when a scene or an object that is being photographed contains fine, repetitive details that exceed sensor resolution. As a result, the camera produces strange-looking wavy patterns. It is simply an effect and doesn't exist on the book in real life. For anyone unfamiliar with Folio Society books, they are constructed using only high-quality materials with uncompromising methods by masters in bookmaking. All are wonderfully illustrated on gorgeous paper with deep fonts. For most people who are only familiar with generic Chinese-manufacturered, mass-produced books, the obvious quality difference is instantly revelatory.
