About This Item
Leipzig: Breitkopf und Härtel, 1880. Hardcover. Fair. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, original dark red cloth boards half bound in leather two corners and spine. The exterior shows heavy wear to the edges and corners in the spine shows a very old reinforcement of a thick textured material. Dark brown end pages in front and rear are free of any handwriting or bookplates, no library markings, no signatures. The text pages themselves are tight but there is a large opening at the first title page and it is possible the black reinforcement on the outside of the book may be the only thing holding the front board on. There is also a split at one of the rear end page areas. This book contains two title pages, the first one (Dritter Band) contains 488 pages, and the other section (Vierter Band) also contains 488 pages (976 total). In addition, there are two foldout maps in the rear of the book - one smaller one and the other one is large. Both are attached and appear to be in good condition. Please note: one book that contains dritter band (third volume) and vieter band (fourth volume). There is no volume one or two present. Text is in German.

Terms of Sale
Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)
Purchases will ship by US Media Mail or Priority Mail (if buyer selects) and higher priced items may have insured placed on the order and will typically ship within one business day. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 5 lbs., but only in unusual cases. Insurance is available upon request though we normally place insurance on any item of $75 or higher at no additional cost to the buyer. Non-US sales will ship by First Class International or Global Priority. Additional postage may be required for multiple volume books or books weighing over 4 lbs.
We always take extra care in packaging and shipping. Books are typically wrapped in packing paper or bubblewrap before packaged in a sturdt shipping box. All orders, even those shipped by US Media Mail, will be given a USPS tracking number which will be sent to the buyer so they will know when to expect arrival. Please let us know if there is a book with incorrect or missing photos. We recently moved the inventory to Biblio and a title or two may have had issues with the photos being transferred over.
Yesterday's Book shop is owned and operated by a disabled veteran. Due to my limitations, I often have to rely on speech-to-text software to list the books. If the description has typos ("and pages" instead of "end pages", pace downs instead of pastedowns, guilt instead of gilt, etc,) PLEASE let me know so I can correct the listing. The software spells words by phonetics and can make errors that I may not catch.
There is a 30 day money back guarantee if the book arrives damaged or is not as described. Please contact us prior if you have any issues with your purchases and we will make sure you are taken care of.

About Yesterday's Book Shop (Member IOBA)
Yesterday's Book Shop is an independent, family-owned establishment. The store first opened in 1966 under the name Collector's Corner and was located in Western Maryland. The Collector's Corner dealt mainly in books but also sold stamps and assorted ephemera. In 1975 the name was changed to Yesterday's Book Shop when the store only offered books and printed matter. In the early 2000s the brick and mortar store was closed and now we only sell online.
