Faint spotting to top-and fore-edges. Large black and white illustration to front and rear endpapers. VERY light rubbing to extremities. Though this copy is most likely a first printing, it is not the earliest state (damaged hyphen, last line, p. 21), but most likely quite early; the word "two" on p. 252 is perfect. Curiously though the plates in this copy appear coated on both sides.
