Ball, Eustace Hale. The Gaucho.

London: Readers Library, [1928].
First UK edition. Small 8vo. Publisher’s burgundy cloth decorated in faded gilt, actually an exceptionally good copy of a Reader’s Library book, in a near fine dustwrapper, probably the cleanest example I have seen...I may have to sit down and have a cup of tea. Internally clean, with paper stock that could actually be described as something other than yellow, and 8 pp. of black and white images of Douglas Fairbanks being irrepressibly manly. It’s a pretty little book, and an unusual survival, in addition there aren’t that many titles detailing the adventures of Argentine bandits.
