The initials, borders, and ornaments were designed by Saint Gerome. Printed under the supervision of Andrew Andrews. Small quarto. Original paper-covered boards over a light brown suede spine, with a gilt-stamped dark brown leather spine label and a ribbon marker. Small bit of wear to the bottom corners.
