About This Item
London: Bell and Daldy, 1868. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. The interior of the book is unmarked and complete, with some foxing to the preliminary pages. The paper covering the front hinge has cracked, but the binding below remains intact. A small bookseller's stamp (J. Deubner, Moskwa( has been glued to the top right hand corner of the front fixed end paper. The edges of the text-block is gilded, and the burgundy covers have gilt decoration. There is some wear and rubbing to the corners, and top and bottom of the spine, but the book is in overall very good condition.
