FEHÉR, Géza
Kanitz Fülöp Félix "A Balkán Kolombusa" élete és munkássága 1829 - 1904


(The life and works of Felix Philipp Kanitz 1829-1904 "The Columbus of the Balkans")

First Edition 1932



The biography of Kanitz Fülöp Félix, illustrator and ethnographer, one of the foremost authority of the times on the manners and customs of the Southern Slavs. This is the last title to appear both in the Oval logo and Classic III. binding, and is unique among all the post 1926 titles in having a publication year both on the title and half title. Both binding versions were probably issued with a dust jacket, but none is known. The title is extremely scarce in any binding, possibly the rarest title in the entire series, likely produced in very small numbers before the publishing of the series was suspended for two years due to the economic conditions brought about by the Great Depression.
