Methuen Handbook of Colour by A. Kornerup & J. H. Wanscher
Published by Methuen & Co., Ltd., London, England, 1967, second edition revised, printed in Denmark. Hardcover in dustjacket. Indigo cloth with embossed gilt design on the front cover and title on spine, 7" x 5", 243 pages, illustrated with 30 double pages of color samples (1266 colors) and b&w diagrams. VERY GOOD CONDITION: lacking the grey card finder that was tucked into cloth fold on rear pastedown otherwise complete, covers have light wear to the corner-tips and spine ends, two small stains to the fore-edge, internally the rear hinge is just starting, and the gutter is cracked in a few few places but holding well, and a touch of age, otherwise tight, bright, clean and unmarked, in a price-clipped dustjacket that is chipped at the spine-ends and flap-folds, has a 1" tear in the upper margin of the front panel, it remains solid and bright and retains the four color disks on the rear flap, now protected in a clear jacket protector. A very respectable copy with vibrant color samples.
