Description:
Portland: Frank Amato Publications, 1984. First Edition (NAP) . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Photographs. Bound in burgundy cloth with titles in gilt. No additional printings. Although this volume shows little evidence of use, the covers are rubbed along the margins, both front and rear. This appears to be due to a lack of dye by the printer, as the dust wrapper shows no sign that it was subjected to any kind of moisture. The volume lies perfectly flat with no sign of any dampstaining. The dust wrapper has very light edgewear and slight rubbing; there is a small rectangle of sticker residue to the upper right corner. No chips or tears; not price-clipped. The book is unmarked. A clean, tight copy with the jacket in mylar. Uncommon in hardcover.

Chicago: Munsell Publishing Company, 1904. Three Quarter Leather. Very Good. Photographs & Maps. Bound in ribbed charcoal cloth with corners and backstrip in brown leather. Spine in five compartments, with titles and decorations stamped in gilt. Title page dated 1904, but three earlier copyrights indicate this volume was likely published in two volumes at an earlier date, with the Illinois history separate from that of Jo Daviess County. They are here combined in one volume, with 705 total pages; the county history begins at page 617. The endpapers are marbled in green and gilt, with all edges also in gilt. Frontispiece of Lincoln is present with the tissue guard intact. Profusely illustrated throughout, with scenes from Illinois history and photographs of individuals, with most of the latter in the county section. The leather shows only very light rubbing at the extremities, with all corners slightly rubbed but not frayed; the leather has no splits or tears. The cloth has a small bump at the…
