Item description from seller

Two volumes. Full speckled calf bindings with gilt double-rule border and Christ Church, Oxford armorial stamp in gilt to both boards — the arms of Ædes Christi in Acad. Oxon (Christ Church College, University of Oxford), with distinctive cardinal's hat and tassels above shield. Spine panels richly gilt in compartments with floral and foliate tools; red morocco title labels lettered in gilt; black morocco volume number labels. Marbled endpapers in blue, burgundy, and gold shell pattern; fore-edges marbled in red, ochre, and green. Vol. I: Spine sound with gilt largely bright; some cracking and light wear to leather at head and tail; headbands frayed at crown. Boards firm, hinges intact. Interior clean with light scattered foxing to preliminaries and a few leaves; binding tight throughout. Vol. II: Spine with more pronounced wear and cracking; leather lifting at head with some loss; headbands worn. Boards firm, Christ Church armorial stamp clear and bright. Interior clean with light foxing; binding sound. Both volumes bear the ink ownership inscription of Robert Emson, 10 April 1933 to front free endpaper — almost certainly an Oxford student acquiring a working copy at the start of Trinity Term. A price notation of 4/- (four shillings) visible in Vol. II suggests purchase from a college booksale or Oxford secondhand bookseller. These volumes were bound for Christ Church, one of Oxford's most distinguished colleges — alma mater of thirteen British prime ministers, John Locke, W.H. Auden, and Lewis Carroll — whose arms appear in gilt on both boards. Mill's System of Logic was essential reading in Oxford philosophy throughout the Victorian era and well into the twentieth century; this copy connects directly to that tradition. Carefully packed and shipped in a box. Shipped via USPS with tracking provided. International shipping available. Additional photographs available upon request. bSCI 1d.
