8 vo, publisher´s bindig, d/j designed by L.S.Khizhinskii. Very good. All plates and illustrations in the in the text are printed from artist´s original woodblocks.Attractive title page with L.S.Khizhinskkii striking vignette. By many bibliophiles and collectors of Russian illustrated books this book considered to be 'The book of the Year' (1931). extremely rare when L. S. Khizhinskii´s dust jacket preserved. A desirable and sought after illustrated book, one of the few printed in the USSR in 1931. See: Milner, SKhU.
