About this Item

This VG quality book was copyrighted in 1911 and is published by Cupples & Leon; it is 7-5/8" tall with 206 numbered pages of text followed by 2 unnumbered pages of ads. This book has a cream colored cloth binding with all black lettering and a front panel in dark blue and black; it is a format #1 book, as per Mattson & Davis. It is square, reasonably clean, free of edge dings with the top front corner lightly bumped; the head and heel of the spine are bumped with slight fabric damage at the head; the bottom edges have a moderate amount of wear. The spine is clean and the lettering and small image are clear and intact. The front panel image is clean and has very little wear. The top and bottom edges of the spine and both panels are slightly discolored for about 1/8"--nothing serious, just visible. Except for an inked 1923 inscription on the FFEP, the interior is free of writing, stray marks, stains of any sort and paper damage of any type. Both hinges are quite strong and not damaged in any fashion. The text paper is lightly toned and is quite flexible and not brittle. The book has no remainder mark and is not a former library book. It has a frontis + 3 on plain paper. The series list in the front of the book lists all 25 books in the series. The G+ jacket is heavily toned with small chips at both front corners and at the head and heel of the spine, with wear along both front and rear folds. There is a 1-1/2" tear at the top of the front panel, a 1" tear at the bottom of that panel, and a 1" tear with folds at the top of the rear panel. But its most noticeable defect is a number of splotches on the front panel where the top layer of paper--and thus the color--has been removed. The list on the back side of the jacket lists all 25 books in this series. Seller Inventory # BMR-2020-8-25-6
