The Speckled Brook Trout by Cahrles Hallock, et al - 1902

New York: R. H. Russell, 1902. Hardcover. Very Good-/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Louise Rhead. This book is clean, tight, square and internally unmarked, but there is a 1920, pencil gift inscription on the half title page. It is rubbed at the edges with slightly rounded corners and faded spine label. The brich bark motif on the pictorial boards is disconcerting. It has decorative end papers and 184, bright, clear pages with gilt edges at the top and rubbed deckle edges elsewhere. It is illustrated with black & white plates and a color frontispiece and is bound in pictorial paper covered boards with faded titles on a paste down on the spine.
