About This Item
Oxford at the Clarendon Press. Used - Very Good. 1914. Hardcover. Cloth, no dj. 8vo. Red cloth with gilt lettering on spine. 462 numbered pages with ten fold-out maps. Cloth beginning to ripple. Small scuff on front board. Some rubbing to bottom corners of boards, which are turned-in. Spine is slightly cocked. Slight staining from water damage to top edge of front endpaper. Light foxing throughout text block, affecting fold-out maps and their facing leaves more prominently; where maps are present, foxing can be more severe. Despite these flaws, a sound copy with unmarked internals. Very Good. (Subject: Ancient & Classical Studies).
