Small oblong 8vo, ff. 24 leaves of steel engraved plates, all but one signed, variously dated; lightly foxed and browned; in the original brown publisher's cloth, ruled in blind, upper cover lettered and tooled in gilt, all edges gilt, inner hinges a little cracked and weak but holding, head and tail of spine and lightly worn, covers a little spotted and soiled, extremities a little bumped. An appealing souvenir publication celebrating the popular Victorian spa town of Malvern in Worcestershire, and containing 24 charming steel engraved views of the town and vicinity, almost all engraved by the noted London firm of engravers, printmakers and publishers Newman & Co, (inscribed in the present volume as J.[ohn] Newman & Co), who specialised in topographical views. A couple have an imprint of 'Pubd by Hill & Co Malvern'. All but one of the engravings has imprint, some stating '48 Watling St, London', others noting an address of 69 Southwark Bridge Road. The plates are dated variously April 1869, Oct 1st 1871, Jan 26th 1874, Sept 19th 1874, Novr 6th 1875, May 11th 1876, Sept 12th 1876 and Jan 31 1877. The upper cover of the binding cites 'Burrow - Promenade Malvern'. Walter and John Burrow established their famous spring water bottling plant in 1850, eventually being granted a Royal Warrant to supply water to Queen Victoria. They joined in a partnership with the Worcester pharmacy Lea and Perrins, who opened a store in the town, where they undoubtedly sold not only bottles of spring water, but also the newly created Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce. It would appear that they also branched out to sell topographical souvenirs as well.…

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
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.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- 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.
