Tales of the Sun or Folklore of Southern India by Kingscote, Mrs. Howard - 1890

London: W.H.Allen, 1890. This is an almost very good hardcover copy in blue boards elaborately decorated in gilt. Spine tips chipped. Possibly x-library or x-private collection as there is a 'Withdrawn' handstamp on the front floral endpaper, and just the faintest ghost of a label that may have been affixed to the base of the spine. The spine is uniformly darkened, though the gilt title still bright. The base of the spine is lighter than the rest of the spine. There are no other library type markings anywhere, no numbers. pockets, etc. Two previous owner names on the floral front endpaper. Also a few notes on the margins of the first section. Corners worn. 8" high X 6" wide, 308 pages. . Decorative Cloth. Very Good.
