    Description

    First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding

    The first edition of Ernst Haas' detailed catalogue, in which he compiles the Sanskrit and Pali books held in the British Museum. 

    This was the first endeavour to provide such a bibliography, after a period which saw the rapid development of the department. 

    'Presented by the Trustees of the British Museum' to the front paste down. 

    Two pages of adverts to the rear.

    Condition

A small amount of loss to the head and tail of the spine. A few light marks to the boards and spine. Front hinge is starting but firm. Label and ink to the front paste down. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean with scattered spots. Blind stamp to the first few pages.
