About This Item
This book shows a fair amount of wear. Navy blue fabric covered boards, with gilt print on the front and spine. Fabric is worn through at the corners. There are splits in the endpapers front and back, showing the binding fabric. The deckle-edged pages are still tight and clean except for the frontispiece page, which is almost detached. This is a fairly rare book. This book will ship at over two pounds. Excess shipping costs are included in the list price.
