The reproduction of the binding shown above is found in the 1935 publication:
French signed bindings in the Mortimer L. Schiff Collection. With: British and miscellaneous signed bindings in the Mortimer L. Schiff Collection. By Seymour de Ricci. In 4 volumes. Published by New York, MCMXXXV (privately printed), (Printed in France by Lecram-Servant, Paris), 1935. This is De Ricci's second Vente example No. 21 and although usually quite meticulous in his detailing De Ricci has forgotten to tell us the exact size of this binding. I want to compare this binding with another that we will examine on the next page.
