AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

CAMILLO MESSI / Walter Valentini, Look at the old woman. Milanese narration from 1749, edited by Giovanni Biancardi; with a letter from Giuseppe Giolitti, The Tessa Wall, 2009.
Print run of 256 copies printed in monotype with Baskerville characters.
On Tintoretto paper, numbered and bound in softcover with a dust jacket.
Luxury edition of 77 copies on Alcantara paper, featuring an engraving.
Signed and numbered original with a typo by Walter Valentini, bound in half parchment.
Some books have pages that are not cut (they remain joined at the top, called leaf pages or leaf edges) for aesthetic and historical reasons. This recalls the ancient practice where readers had to manually cut folded pages to read them, suggesting an air of luxury, antiquity, or craftsmanship, especially in fine editions or antique books.
