Item description from seller

See photos for condition details. Hardcover, original binding of pebbled stamped boards with leather to spine. The exterior of this copy (we have several listed) also shows scuffing and spotting along with edge and corner bumps/wear, although the leather shows a bit more wear. The internal binding is overall good, no hinge issues. The only handwriting found in the book is on the second front end page where the original owners name is signed along with an 1877 date (in pen). There are no library markings, no other handwriting, no bookplates. Pages are toned due to age but there is only light foxing and spotting present. Please note: at the time of this listing we had several copies available, each one has been listed separately with their own description and photos.
