Spine
 
Front cover with Title page superimposed
Book's spine
Front board with title page superimposed which disapears as cursor moves over it!

The colour of the spine and boards of this book are the same; the scanning mode makes it appear
otherwise - the actual colour is closer to the darker blue.

The facsimile wrapper is printed in two parts and then glued together - available for all 30 books separately [£2.50 each including UK postage] and with every nautilus book !

400 mm. wide by 170 mm. high
