Item description from seller

Please take the time to read my description of the book A Treatise On Life Insurance for added information on this book. Both copies were previously owned by Peter A. Peyser who was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, and who prior to becoming a politician managed several offices of The Mutual Life Insurance Company Of New York in Westchester County, N.Y. As I said in the description of the aforementioned book, this is a COPY of the original book which was published in 1846. It is in Very Good condition. Unlike the first and second book this copy is bound in what feels like a leather cloth and would be described as a hardcover. You can make out the number 3 on the front cover. This is the third of the The Mutual Life Insurance Company Of New York books owned by the Peyser family and they so numbered them. As was the case with the other two books I could not find a copy of the originals published by W.E. Dean, Printer, anywhere on the Internet. The only titles for sale were later reprints. Beside the number 3 the covers seem practically free of imperfection. As you can see from the photograph there's only a bit of scuffing at the spine ends, and on one corner. The maroon color is bright and unsoiled. The book is well bound, and the pages are in very good shape. Please take a look at the photographs.…

Store description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
