Ravel, O. E. Descriptive Catalogue of the Collection of Tarentine Coins formed by M. P. Vlasto. London; Spink & Son, 1947. Large 4to., pp. photographic portrait of Vlasto as frontispiece, xi, (1), 195, (1); 53 superb plates. Somewhat crudely bound in red half morocco and marbled boards, raised bands with red title labels to the spine, lettered and decorated in gilt, marbled endpapers. A little rubbed, particularly to the spine, the contents clean. A very good copy of the far superior, original edition of this wonderful collection. Important and scarce.
