BUCK, Pearl (translator) (COVARRUBIAS, Miguel). ALL MEN ARE BROTHERS 
[SHUI HU CHUAN]. New York: Limited Editions Club, 1948. Two folio 
volumes (9-1/4" x 12-1/4") bound in Oriental bark paper in the 
traditional stab-sewn Chinese style. Illustrated by Miguel Covarrubias 
with the plates hand-colored in the studio of Paul Baruch. Calligraphic 
titles by Jeanyee Wong. Of a total edition of 1500 copies SIGNED by the 
artist on the colophon page, this is one of only 15 Presentation Copies 
with the publisher's blindstamp attesting to such on the colophon page 
where instead of a number the initials "G.M." are handwritten. Acquired 
directly from the publisher's files, and most likely the publisher 
George Macy's very own copy. Some splitting to covers, which are still 
attached. Hence, Very Good in chemise and a complete, Good slipcase that 
has been neatly repaired with similar paper by the publisher. (#016565) 
     $200.00
