Rowland Ward, Ltd, 1913-01-01. Hardcover. Poor/None as issued. 0x0x0. 1913 first edition; ex-library with many related markings and stamps. Binding is very loose and one section of pages is hanging on by a thread, but contents are complete. Multiple attempts have been made to repair tears at the spine, some of which are large, and to try to stabilize the book, but with limited success. Spine has been covered with brown cloth book tape, with the title penned on the tape. Red cloth cover has heavy wear and is worn through at the corners. Bits of library stickers remain. Gilt title on front is bright and sharp. Not pretty, but an interesting reading copy. A scarce vintage book, priced accordingly based on its condition. Sold AS-IS. Books that sell for $9 or more ship in a box; under $9 in a bubble mailer. Expedited and international orders may ship in a flat rate envelope rather than a box due to cost constraints.

Description:
Old America, 1928-01-01. First Edition. Hardcover. Fair/None as issued. The original, 1st edition 2-volume set from 1928. Brown buckram covers, no jackets as issued. These HUGE volumes are in very good condition given their age. Bindings are solid, all pages intact. Hinges have not torn; they are weak on volume 1, tight and solid on volume 2. Pages on both books are well-thumbed - it appears they were used as a reference by a furniture maker who did not always get all the stain off his hands! All text/illustrations are perfectly legible, just expect many finger smudges in the margins. Covers have rubbing at edges, especially at corners, but corners are still quite square. Gilt titles on covers and spine still bright. With over 5000 illustrations, it's easy to see why this set has become the standard research source for American furniture. Books that sell for $9 or more ship in a box; under $9 in a bubble mailer. Expedited and international orders may ship in a flat rate envelope rather than a…
