About this Item
5" x 7-3/8", viii + 742pp. Printed on onion paper (entire book including boards is just 5/8" thick) and bound in signatures in green leather boards. Title block on stamped in gilt on front cover, and title block and retro "hand tooled" design, replete with faux "raised" bands which aren't, stamped in gilt on spine. Gilt top edge tinting. Moderate edge wear, corner wear, a bit of soiling to cover, which is a bit age toned at the spine and darkened on the front and back panels. Binding is square and strong. Names of a previous owner are written with quill pen in the same hand, but apparently at different times, on the front free end paper. A small moisture stain affects the bottom tip of the last 20 pages. Otherwise, pages are lightly age toned but clean and unmarked. Seller Inventory # 004619
