Chopin / Etudes (Kalmus Edition) [Paperback] Review

Chopin / Etudes [Paperback]Represented in this book are all of Opus 10 and 25, and 3 other etudes published posthumously.
This is a great book - it's complete, has very strong binding, sits flat on the piano and of course, the music is amazing.
But there are 2 letdowns:
-The book appears to be a reprint of a very old edition, and while most the music is very clear and easy to read, the fingering in places is hard to understand. In particular, '4's look basically identical to '1's in many cases.
-There are often not enough fingers given, for example, in the Op 10 No 4, using the right fingers is essential in developing speed, but there are only 2 finger markings on the entire first page
But considering that the Dover edition of the Etudes (apparently) has many poor fingerings, this book may be a good alternative.
It's not without its flaws, but very good none-the-less.
