About This Item
Gravesend: Thomas Hall, 1886 82pp, the advertising pages fore and aft unumbered. The population of Gravesend in 1881 was 22,089 and the number of houses 4019 of which 132 were uninhabited in June 1886. It is interesting to note that the typograhical style deployed in the advertising is still very much in the mid to early 19th century style. This is very much a working copy with ink ticks and crosses with lines through many of the names - either used for political canvassing or updating for futue issues. The spine is shot with many pages loose, but all are present and correct. Needs rebacking.
