About This Item
Pennsylvania: Valley Sentinel Office, 1877. Hardcover. Fair. Blue hardcover lacking dustjacket, no additional printings listed, so probably first edition. A fair to good copy with heavy wear to the extremeties, most pronounced at the spine ends. Both hinges are split and fragile, but boards still attached. Front free endpaper detached, otherwise all pages bound in and intact. Previous owners inscriptions to the first blank - one from 1881 and one from 1968 - otherwise an unmarked copy. Pages with age toning and a bit of foxing, text clean and legible. 263 pp., indexed, ahistory of the church's first 100+ years. Laid in at front is a newspaper article from the local paper about a man who brings his chair to the Presbyterian Church to spend the day after the local benches were all removed.
