About This Item
George Bell and Sons, 1905. 1st Edition. Hardcover. VG/VG-. Blue cloth with blind stamped front board and gilt stamped titles to the spine. Uncut edges with decorative red and white endpapers, xiv, 287 (1) with 116 illustrations. Together with a very scarce original dust jacket. Although protected by the dust jacket, the spine is somewhat faded as is often the case with this book. Internally, there are no names, inscriptions or book plates. There is a little light toning to the endpapers and some spotting mainly to the uncut edges. The binding is tight and square. The dust jacket is a very scarce survivor. It is in two pieces and is very delicate with toning to the spine and a number of small chips along the top edge more prominently on the back panel (see images). It has now been put in a clear removable jacket to protect it from further damage. All in all, a very good copy in a scarce dust jacket. If you would like further images please do not hesitate to ask. Rainford & Parris Books welcomes enquiries, so please do not hesitate to ask if you require further images or have any questions. All books are packaged with great care.
