About this Item

Blanchard A27. VG first edition. Andrew Jameson achieved high office in the Scottish legal system and the young JB was a frequent visitor to Ardwall House on the Galloway coast. This short biography was written at the request of Lady Ardwall shortly after Lord Ardwall s death. Blanchard shows the binding as dark blue cloth but this copy is bound in an attractive olive green cloth, slightly textured. It is clearly a factory binding, not a private binding, and in all other respects is identical to the description given in Blanchard. It is not a later impression as, at this period, Blackwood s were punctilious in noting impressions subsequent to the first. Very bright with good, sharp corners but some very slight rubbing in places. Internally virtually as new but for a hint of browning of the endpapers. The second fly-leaf carries a splendidly florid inscription and there is a very small bookplate on the front paste-down. An attractive and very rare copy. Seller Inventory # 7750
