Philadelphia: J.H. Coates & Co, 1876. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. L. Aubrun. Unpaginated, illustrated. 9.75 x 8 inches. Brown cloth with gilt titles and decoration, gilt text edges. Wear to extremities, corners bumped, mild rippling and some soiling to cloth, isolated soil spots to interior, front hinge cracked, one signature partially detached. Contains 8 plates of tinted lithographs drawn by L Aubrun, and published by Thomas Hunter, of the buildings of the Centennial: Main Building (frontispiece) Art Gallery, Machinery Hall, Horticultural Hall, Agricultural Hall, US Government Building, Women's Pavilion, Judge's Hall. The book was designed by the publisher with sheets of lightly lined note paper for use by visitors to record their experiences at the Centennial or to insert photographs or engravings of their own. The title page leaves a space for the owner to insert his or her name. However Ms Manypenny instead wrote her name on the front pastedown, and had a number of her friends hand write personal letters and greetings to her, unrelated to the Centennial, on some of these note pages. The friends are Eva M. Miller (1889), Elizabeth E. Marsh (1905), Rena S. Briggs (1889), "your niece Josie" (1890), Annie E. Robinson (1917), Norman B. Baldwin and Caroline E. Baldwin, Mrs T.P.Seeley (Chicago-1889).

Description:
Circa 1875 edition of popular captivity narrative. Nelson & Phillips, New York. Spencer was 11 when captured in 1792. Brown blindstamped cloth, gilt title on spine. Condition is Very Good: Recased using original boards sometime in last 40 years. Modern endpapers. No interior writing, occasional foxing, some smudges, old corner folds. Small hole pp.13/14 affecting a few letters. Binding is sound. 160 pages with 4 plates and 4 engravings embedded in text all included in pagination. Contents bound at end as usual with this book. The plates and engravings are same topics and locations as the 1842 edition but are by a different engraver. True first edition is 1835 in either New York or Pennsylvania. See Howes S843; Ayer 272; Field 1470; Graff 3930 and OCLC: 35730821. Please see images of the book you will receive. Notes: putting an accurate date on this edition is problematic. Nelson began publishing in 1854 so definitely after that. WorldCat suggests "187?" which is reasonable looking at materials used.…
