About This Item
Mexico City, 1883. Good plus.. xlvii pp. Contemporary quarter calf and marbled boards. Edges and spine ends somewhat worn. Contemporary ownership inscription and bookseller's ink stamp on title page; same owner's ink stamps on two leaves of text. Light tanning and foxing. Unusual printing, privately commissioned, of a late 19th-century thesis on the importance of eloquence by a university student, Agustin Verdugo, in the literature department. Interesting as an example of private, scholarly printing in Mexico during the 1880s, bordering on a fine press-like production. OCLC locates one other copy, at the BNM.
