By The Expedition

1966 FIRST EDITION


This is the first edition of A PHOTOGRAPHIC RECORD OF THE MOUNT SHISHA PANGMA SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION. It was published in Peking by The Science Press in 1966. As far as I know, this is the only edition of the book in english. It is quite uncommon. The book is large format measuring 293mm tall x 23cm, and has 86 pages, 8 color & 87 b/w photos (2 fldg panoramas), EP map. Photo album of the expedition including some photos from the first ascent. Text (captions & short intro) is in english.

CONDITION: Original white cloth, gilt lettering front & spine. Book is in near fine condition with a little tanning cover edges and at top of spine area. Pages are glossy paper that is clean and not foxed. No previous owner marks or writing on any pages, no creased pages, tight binding. Original dust jacket is complete but has a 4cm tear top front near spine with crinkle marks, tiny 3mm loss top of spine, some soiling on rear panel, but the gilt lettering is bright like that in the lighter image. NOTE: the two pictures of the covers are of the same book. They look different due to different lighting. The actual color of the book is closest to that of the darker of the two images. Price: SOLD.
