About This Item
Amstelodami (Amsterdam): Sumptibus Societatis, 1745. Leather. Good+. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 2 volumes. Volume I: (iv), 531pp., (i) (Errata); Volume II: (iv), 323pp., (i), viii, 138p. Very nicely and newly rebound in 1/2 dark reddish brown leather over marble paper covered boards, with gilt lettering to spine. Bindings are strong. Volumes include new endpapers and open very nicely, making the books very user friendly. Several institutional stamps to title-pages, as well as a small number of additional pages. A very neat, single line of writing in ink to each title-page. Volumes have been fully collated, with all wear noted. Pages admit to mostly just light foxing, here and there, with a little heavier foxing to a small number of leaves. Additionally, creasing and some erasure marks can be found, here and there, though are not offensive at all. One leaf admits to a tiny hole, with no loss of lettering. Mild spotting to just a few pages, though, again, this isn't offensive. The half title-page for volume 2 admits to an approximately 1"x3" tear at lower margin, with approximately 4 other pages also admitting to minor tears, with no effect on the reading of the text (there are additional tiny tears here and there, to margins of some pages). A lovely, nicely preserved set
