About This Item

Boston, MA: Houghton, Osgood and Company, 1879. Hardcover. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, marbled paper covered boards with leather to corners and spine. Leather shows chipping and spotting with wear to the highlights. Top of spine has a chip missing, edges and corners show wear. Exterior page edges are marbled on all three sides. The interior hinges at boards are showing thin cracks, though the rear hinge has only a few smaller spots. The binding of the interior pages is very good and pages are tight, nothing torn or loose. The book contains numerous illustrations with each one having its own tissue guard. There is a small dampstain which mostly appears on the front and rear end pages, outside edge. The book is stamped numerous times with an ornate monogram belonging to someone named Arthur C. McKnight. The first four pages are stamped with variations and the note page has his name neatly stamped at the top. There are also several other places throughout the book where the monogram appears on the blank backside of the illustrations, as well as page 410.

Terms of Sale

Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)

Purchases will ship by US Media Mail or Priority Mail (if buyer selects) and higher priced items may have insured placed on the order and will typically ship within one business day. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 5 lbs., but only in unusual cases. Insurance is available upon request though we normally place insurance on any item of $75 or higher at no additional cost to the buyer. Non-US sales will ship by First Class International or Global Priority. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 4 lbs.

We always take extra care in packaging and shipping. Books are typically wrapped in packing paper or bubblewrap before packaged in a sturdt shipping box. All orders, even those shipped by US Media Mail, will be given a USPS tracking number which will be sent to the buyer so they will know when to expect arrival. Please let us know if there is a book with incorrect or missing photos. We recently moved the inventory to Biblio and a title or two may have had issues with the photos being transferred over.

Yesterday's Book shop is owned and operated by a disabled veteran. Due to my limitations, I often have to rely on speech-to-text software to list the books. If the description has typos ("and pages" instead of "end pages", pace downs instead of pastedowns, guilt instead of gilt, etc,) PLEASE let me know so I can correct the listing. The software spells words by phonetics and can make errors that I may not catch.

There is a 30 day money back guarantee if the book arrives damaged or is not as described. Please contact us prior if you have any issues with your purchases and we will make sure you are taken care of.

About Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)

Yesterday's Book Shop is an independent, family-owned establishment. The store first opened in 1966 under the name Collector's Corner and was located in Western Maryland. The Collector's Corner dealt mainly in books but also sold stamps and assorted ephemera. In 1975 the name was changed to Yesterday's Book Shop when the store only offered books and printed matter. In the early 2000s the brick and mortar store was closed and now we only sell online.

All of the book pictures were taken at the time the book was listed and we never use generic or stock photos in any listing. If you would like additional photos or information on any listing please let us know and we will be more than happy to comply.
