About This Item
James Maclehose, 1873. Hardcover. Very Good. Green cloth, gilt stamped borders and spine lettering. All edges gilt. The volume has a light spine lean, is bumped at the corners and the spine crown is worn. There is a small book binder's label on the rear pastedown, a small hole in the front gutter, and unfortunately, a jagged 3/4" strip is missing from the top of the frontis. We have made the book sound terrible, yet it presents very well.

About Trilby & Co. Books
Trilby & Co. Books is located in Northern California. The company was founded years ago by a Shetland Sheepdog named Trilby. Trilby's message to her family was brief and direct - the sale of books would increase disposable income and improve the quality of provisions in her food dish. My name is McTavish (picture above). I am the current CEO of this company, and I approve of her message. Oh, by the way, my speciality is literature, with an emphasis on first editions and signed books.
