About This Item
London : Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner and Co, Ltd., 1903. Cloth. Very Good. 10.5" by 7". None. A limited edition of Nimrod's Hunting Tours, in attractive publishers' cloth binding. A popular volume by the noteworthy Victorian sports writer, the work contains eighteen colour plates by the likes of R.B. Davis and H.B. Chalton, and comes as part of a sought after limited printing of 500. In cloth binding with gilt detailing. Externally smart, there is some rubbing and wear to the extremities, as well as minor shelfwear and markings to the boards. Internally, the pages are firmly bound and are generally bright and clean throughout, though there are several coloured inscriptions to the title and endpages, as well as handling marks and the odd spot. Very Good
