Item description from seller

Also known as Sheridan's Reducing Table, all the information needed to dilute overproof spirits for retail sale. Plus "a practical guide to reducing, fining, filtering, blending, bottling, binning, gauging, &c." Stock toned but otherwise all in VG internal order. Unless you are planning to bottle spirits, the chief interest is probably in the period advertising, printed in red and black throughout the book. Many extant and long gone brands featured. My eye was drawn to Old Bristol Dry Gin which, a doctor writes, "possesses valuable medicinal properties". Paper-covered boards with blue cloth to spine also advertising rich. Wear to boards and some grubbiness/toning towards edges. Still a most appealing volume. Scarce. 8vo. 136pp.

Store description

Formerly known as Journobooks, our original speciality was books about journalism, journalists, newspapers, magazines and other media (hence the old name) and we still have a great stock of hard-to-find books in that field. Over time we have added a wide variety of other collectible gems some of which we sell on behalf of the charity Friends of Morston Church (reg.1099831). Our goal is to offer the best value for money on Abebooks, ie. the lowest price for the condition of the book. We love buying and selling books, so will try to make your buying experience as easy and pleasant as possible.…
