Лот 266 | First Russia, Then Tibet
Robert BYRON (1905-1941). First Russia then Tibet. [London]: Macmillan, 1933.

Two signed presentation copies of the first edition; one in dust jacket. Inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper: “Presented to the Library of ‘The Castle of Temptation’ by Robert Byron.”

Large octavo. Illustrated from drawings and photographs, almost all by the author. (Light foxing to text at ends and fore-edge). Original green cloth (lean, hinges weak); pictorial dust jacket (price-clipped, long closed tears to lower panel with old tape reinforcement on verso, spine tanned and with chips at both ends, fold corners chipped). Provenance: “The library of the ‘Castle of Temptation’” (presentation inscription). Much of William Reese’s collection of Robert Byron derived from the estate of Byron’s close friend and biographer, Christopher Sykes; perhaps this did as well. [With]: Another copy. In original cloth; without dust jacket. (Light spotting and a slight lean.) Inscribed and signed on the front free endpaper: "To Rip Vallet / in memory of so many happy hours in Pekin / Robert Byron / April 9th / '36".
