About This Item

[5], 14-176, 229-240 + 8 pages of adverts at the rear and 8 plates for advertisers + folding map of Dudley as the frontispiece. This volume formed vol 2 of Bentley's history and directory of Worcestershire as stated on the spine, but was presumably also separately issued. Folding map is very heavily spotted and torn down one of the folds. A few stains to pages. Completely split down the front inner hinge and text block almost detached from the binding. In the original cloth binding. Undated but circa 1840..
