About This Item
London: A. Millar in the Strand, 1753. Leather, 5th edition revised and corrected from 1753 complete in four volumes. 5 raised bands on spine, (faded) gilt titles and volume numbers in compartments. Each volume presents some overall wear, with light age toning and some minor foxing - primarily confined to the prelims. Hinges are relatively sound, with the exception of volume 4 which is quite tender. Mild scuffing on all covers. Interior pages are clean, bright and solidly bound. All in all a handsome set from the mid 1700s.. Leather. Good.
