Item description from seller

Publisher's original brown cloth with spine lettering and ruling gilt, quarto, pp. xii, [1], 18-514 plus pp. [10] ads (curious pagination collated and perfect with the copy at Library Company of Philadelphia). Previous owner, a physician, small name and date in cursive at top of free front endpaper. Medical-themed bookplate from a second, later owner, also a physician, affixed to front pastedown. Condition is FAIR-only, with an old strip of faded tape reinforcing the front hinge internally, and another strip at the rear hinge. A few spots of discoloration on boards. PLEASE NOTE that one of the previous owners applied a thin layer of lacquer to the boards, perhaps in an attempt at preventing scuffing or shelf rubbing? Peculiar, but somehow noble just the same. However, the coating made the spine ends a bit brittle, with several chips of the now taut cloth lost at crown of spine, and a 2 inch vertical separation of the cloth, with potential to become a "flap," is developing downward from crown where rear board meets spine (see image for our best attempt at a close-up).
