24 pages of text plus a post script printed on the inside of the rear cover. Unfortunately, the first page of text is affixed to the inside of the front cover. It appears to have been done intentionally, as it is neatly and firmly affixed. Nine lines of text on the page 2 are underlined neatly in red ink. A few creases and moderate rubbing to the extremities, and minor soiling and quite a bit of foxing to the wrappers, which affects the final page of text. First edition. Previous owner's name neatly on the inside of the rear cover. From the collection of Louis Marder, Shakespeare historian and collector of books by, on or referring to William Shakespeare.
