About this Item
6 1/4" x 9 1/4" x 1 1/4", pictorial paper-covered boards, brown cloth spine with gilt titling, 352 numbered pages including 66 pages of ads + 32 unnumbered yellow pages of ads + 1 blue cardstock ad page [385 pp. total], yellow endpapers with ads. An excellent volume of Victorian-era advertising with many full-page ads with extraordinary engravings. Hundreds of mid-size and smaller ads. The directory entries and ads give one a feel for what 1880 New Hampshire was like. Condition is Very Good: a very sound, square and tight binding, prefect hinges and endpapers, and leaves with only the slightest of age-toning. Boards are bumped and worn at corners and edges, some chipping of the paper at the edges, and the spine has faded. Overall, Very Good. SEE ALL 5 PHOTOS ENLARGED. Seller Inventory # 04124
