SYNOPSIS:  562 pages.

Publisher: Oxford University Press, London. Stated 1933 First Edition, Sixth Impression.

Format: Hardback. No dust jacket. NOT an EX LIB.

Condition: Volume in Acceptable condition.
This is an EXTREMELY scarce edition. Red cloth boards with gold foil lettering on spine and all page edges dyed red. A couple of ink dots on lower page edges. Boards have soiling, bumping to corners and edges, spine cover faded, and boards are cocked from being splayed open. Binding also split from the splaying with binding mesh showing, but all pages still bound. Numerous annotations throughout in pencil and red pencil from previous owner who appeared to have been the music director based on the notes. Fortunately none of his/her notes obliterated any text. There is one page, 211/212 (pictured), which was repaired with the old fashioned cellophane tape at the upper edge on both sides, and that tape is now yellowed, but still allows text below it to show through. Foxing to inside front cover. Owner's name on inside front cover was marked through with black marker, but date "Mar '48" in red pencil still visible. Quite a large and heavy volume.  Photos illustrate condition of overall volume.

See Grading Scale page for explanation of grades. Photos of any obvious condition issues will be provided.
