About This Item
New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1888. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good+. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, red cloth boards show toning and spotting and spine is lightened with three vertical marks near the center. External edges and corners also show some bumping. The internal binding is good, no hinge issues. This is an old ex-library copy from a religious establishment. The front pastedown contains a label stating it was from St. Francis Xavier Library of Gettysburg PA. The title page also contains a circular embossed seal which says, in part, that it came from the St. Francis Xavier School. There is also a name written on the label on the frontispiece as well as the title page, presumably this is the teacher who use the book in the classroom. The rear of the book has a small simple piece of paper tipped in that says "Must be returned". No other markings are found in the book. The 2nd front end page has what appears to be an old store price that was penciled in the corner and then later erased, see you can see faint remnants of that. Pages are mildly toned due to age and there were a couple small smudge marks and foxing spots, though only a few. The book grades as a high G+ to a low VG-.

Terms of Sale
Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)
Purchases will ship by US Media Mail or Priority Mail (if buyer selects) and higher priced items may have insured placed on the order and will typically ship within one business day. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 5 lbs., but only in unusual cases. Insurance is available upon request though we normally place insurance on any item of $75 or higher at no additional cost to the buyer. Non-US sales will ship by First Class International or Global Priority. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 4 lbs.
We always take extra care in packaging and shipping. Books are typically wrapped in packing paper or bubblewrap before packaged in a sturdt shipping box. All orders, even those shipped by US Media Mail, will be given a USPS tracking number which will be sent to the buyer so they will know when to expect arrival. Please let us know if there is a book with incorrect or missing photos. We recently moved the inventory to Biblio and a title or two may have had issues with the photos being transferred over.
Yesterday's Book shop is owned and operated by a disabled veteran. Due to my limitations, I often have to rely on speech-to-text software to list the books. If the description has typos ("and pages" instead of "end pages", pace downs instead of pastedowns, guilt instead of gilt, etc,) PLEASE let me know so I can correct the listing. The software spells words by phonetics and can make errors that I may not catch.
There is a 30 day money back guarantee if the book arrives damaged or is not as described. Please contact us prior if you have any issues with your purchases and we will make sure you are taken care of.

About Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)
Yesterday's Book Shop is an independent, family-owned establishment. The store first opened in 1966 under the name Collector's Corner and was located in Western Maryland. The Collector's Corner dealt mainly in books but also sold stamps and assorted ephemera. In 1975 the name was changed to Yesterday's Book Shop when the store only offered books and printed matter. In the early 2000s the brick and mortar store was closed and now we only sell online.
