About This Item
Ashby de la Zouch: W. and J. Hextall, 1854 Book. Good. Original Cloth. vi, 44p and folding pedigree. Lacks the 8 plates which never seem to have been bound, this perhaps a proof copy. Some pages printed on one side of the paper only, some pages printed on paper that is more like thin card than ordinary paper, but text is complete. Closed tear to edge of page v. 71 copies only were printed of which 60 demy octavo, 8 royal octavo and 3 demy folio. This copy has been trimmed in binding and measures approximately 8.5 x 5.375 inches, I imagine from the evidence that it is a proof copy and thereofore additional to the 71 quoted. Bound in faded 19th century cloth. Bookplate of Paul Morgan, the Warwickshire bibliographer to the front pastedown..
