About This Item
Publishers Union. Good with No dust jacket as issued. 1891. First Edition. Hardcover. Spine lettering faded to nearly illegible. Covers show fairly heavy spotting (loss of finish). Hinge papers (front and rear) have split and been improperly repaired (glued) in such a way that the book opens to the title page with the preceding pages only partially opening. A bit of foxing to the title page. The page block (text) is clean and tight -- a good readable copy. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 320 pages .
