About This Item
Philadelphia and London: The Biddle Press / Headley Bros., 1908. First Edition First Printing . Hardcover. Good/Fair. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. 12mo. 69 pages. Hardcover bound in light tan quarter cloth with brown paper-covered boards and housed in a red dust jacket which may or may not be original to the book. (The jacket does not have the book's title but states "...with best wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" from Nicholson's Book Shop in Richmond, Indiana). The jacket is heavily damped and worn. This has minimal effect on the binding, but there is a bit of damping on the lower corner of the first few pages, and there is heavy red damping in the rear flyleaf. The book is sound and is clean within. Scarce.
