About This Item
Boston: Adams and Nourse, 1789. Complete Collection of Adams & Nourse Printings of Massachusetts Laws, 1783-1789. Compilation of the acts passed by the General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts from 1783 through 1789. (1)-746 pages followed by 63 pages (numbered 433-495) of "Perpetual Laws." Sympathetically rebound in full brown leather. The title page carries a publication date of 1783, but the consecutive pagination suggests to me that the title page may have been inserted from another disbound book at the time this volume was rebound.. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Collectible-Very Good. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. Book.
