Signed, limited first edition, one of 480 copies. The fine illustrations by Baumann depict the pictographs at Rito de los Frijoles. Sadly, even in Baumann's time, the original drawings suffered and were more or less obliterated. Prospectus laid in.

Quarto. Illustrated throughout with color woodcut prints, including one folding triptych, signed by the artist (narrow crease at outer edge of folding plate). Original patterned cloth, paper spine and cover labels, patterned endpapers, glassine jacket (jacket browned and chipped).
