Venetian Iron Work ; Vol. I., No. I., March, 1895 ; Metropolitan Handy Series (issued quarterly) by [Butterick] - 1895

London / New York: The Butterick Publishing Co, 1895. First Edition. Original Wraps. Good plus. Single issue. Complete. Quarto, 9 1/2" tall, 84 pages with intertextual illustration, stiff printed wraps. A good original periodical issue over all, would be very good but for one significant flaw--a small caliber bullet hole through the upper area--puncture about 1/4 inch across, the actual hole much smaller, damaging some text though all appears to be decipherable; otherwise generally clean, textured wraps rubbed at corners, lightly soiled, spine scuffed, binding solid, paper moderately yellowed.
