About this Item
FINE book, VG+ DJ. Large paper edition. The plain linen paper backed DJ is much different than the 1st trade. The few dozen full page Adams illustrations are not indexed. Book is half tan cloth and light brown paper covered boards. Gilt lettered spine & upper board, with a gilt head of Lincoln. Book in great condition. Top edge clean as new, as are the others which are deckled. Pages 7-10 are unopened at bottom edge, next four pages are not. This pattern repeated throughout. Book tends to stay closed when stood on its spine. Two book flaws: (1) neatly inked 1920 gift note & (2) a sheet of brown paper had been placed inside the cover, browning the inside of the upper board & the adjoinibg pastedown. No such browning inside the lower board. A laid in newspaper artical on Lincoln has browned pp 232-233. DJ quite nice. Some extremely light edgewear. Gilt spine largely lettering faded away. FINE book, VG+ DJ. 1st edition, 8 5/8"x5 34". 416pp. Seller Inventory # 001133
