London: Constable & Company, 1930. Decorative Boards. Very Good. Gilbert Rumbold. A solid, more-than-serviceable copy of the 1930 1st edition, 2nd impression, with the following points: 1) "Additional Cocktails" printed on pgs. 282-83; 2) "Bacardi Special Cocktail" appears on pg. 25; 3) No pagination on the title page; and 4) Lacking the tipped-in recipe on pg. 25. Tight and VG in its iconic, Art Deco-suffused front cover, with spotting at both covers (especially the rear cover) and pronounced foxing to the preliminaries (but only the preliminaries). 12mo, beautifully designed throughout in rich color (mostly at the margins) by Gilbert Rumbold; the timeless "cocktail recipes themselves compiled by Harry Craddock of the Savoy Hotel London
