About This Item
R.H. Russell, New York, 1901. This is the "Wayside Series" edition of The "Bab" Ballads, BAB being a childhood nickname of W.S. Gilbert before he went on to team with Mr. Sullivan to make theatrical history. 6 1/8" X 3 7/8" bound in green leather with 5 raised bands by the Fifth Avenue Bookshop. The corner tips are abradedand there is wear at the spine ends and on some of the bands. In addition, there is a light white residue on parts of the covers which leads me to believe that someone may have tried to polish or saddle soap these beautiful covers. 184pp.. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket.
