About This Item
New York: The MacMillan Co., 1934. First Edition. Hardcover. Fair/No Dust Jacket. 5.75 x 4.35 x 0.75 inches. Presenting a remarkable addition to any collection of antiquarian books, we proudly offer ""The Golden Treasury of the Best Songs and Lyrical Poems in the English Language,"" selected and arranged with notes by Francis Turner Palgrave, published by Macmillan in 1934 as part of their Pocket Classics Series. This renowned anthology of English poetry showcases the timeless beauty and literary richness of the English language. Measuring 5.75 x 4.35 inches, this edition, ""revised and enlarged"" from the 1928 edition, is presented in fair condition, without a jacket. The brown cloth boards feature an ornate embossed design on the front cover, adding an elegant touch to its appearance. However, the gold print on the front cover has faded over time. Small light stains can be observed on the boards, and there is moderate wear to the corners and spine ends. The binding shows a slight forward roll, reflecting its age and previous usage. Toning along the edges of the textblock is present, while an abrasion is noticeable on the front flyleaf. Internally, the book contains sparse erased pencil markings and shows age toning, further enhancing its vintage appeal. However, it remains a treasure trove of English poetry, carefully selected and arranged to provide readers with a diverse and captivating literary experience. Rest assured, this extraordinary volume will be meticulously packaged for shipment, ensuring utmost protection from the elements. We prioritize the security of the book during transit and, as part of our commitment to excellent service, will provide you with a USPS electronic tracking number free of charge, allowing you to monitor the progress of this valued acquisition. If you require further information or images of this remarkable book, please do not hesitate to contact us.
