First Edition
Decorative Leather. Condition: Good -. First Edition. This is an ex-library volume and has name stamping on the backs of each plate illustration (likely to discourage theft). 11 issues (missing March) bound in one volume without covers or advertisements. Most articles are short (a page or two). Quarto, 10 2/3" tall, viii + 563 pages (minus 48 pages of missing March issue) plus 17 steel plate engravings; black 3/4 leather over brown cloth. This is a good minus volume overall, exterior worn, hinges broken and covers loose, exterior corners rubbed and bumped, and a hole (like a small caliber bullet) in the front cover upper corner that is evident to the endpaper and fly leaf but not in the interior (this was likely another theft inhibitor as the volume was wired to the bookshelf; interior binding solid, text paper clean, but most margins are lightly foxed and foxing visible on blank reverse of most steel plates, paper lightly yellowed. This is the regular publisher edition. It was common for publishers to print such volumes from the original periodical plates before melting them down to make new plates. The Ladies' Repository was a monthly periodical issued by the Methodist Episcopal Church and published original and reprints of literature, poetry, biography and criticism and moral advice. Note: overseas shipping is prohibitively expensive at present.
