Old Booty! A Serio-Comic Sailor's Tale. By W. T. Moncrieff. Illustrated by Robert Cruikshank. Published by William Kidd in 1830. Size: 4 x 6 1/2 inches. Page number: 36. A hardcover book covered with marbled paper, the spine being cloth. On the front board a cream paste decorated in black, 'Old Booty'. Within an introduction that explains the possible origin of the poem, the poem itself and 'six spirited engravings on wood from designs by Robert Cruikshank'. Condition: Fine. The contents of the book are absolutely clean, un-thumbed, apparently unread. The boards, save for a mark on the front about 1 cm long and 2 mm wide are also in excellent condition. It is my feeling that the book might have been re-bound at some point. A very good copy of an engaging tale.

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.

It is recommended that more valuable books be insured, particularly if they are being sent overseas. I will contact the buyer with a cost prior to do so. In the UK packages sent by Royal Mail special delivery can be tracked and are insured; otherwise, though every effort is made on my part to locate an item lost in the post, I cannot accept responsibility for the loss.
