About this Item

8vo (21 x 13 cms). xxiv, 620. Leather; the spine with 5 raised bands. All edges gilt. Marbled endpapers. The sixth edition, revised and enlarged. CONDITION. Externally poor, internally very good. The boards much scuffed; the spine even more so: gilt tooling all but invisible, title label missing: further detail perhaps unnecessary. Joints and hinges sound, however, and everything between the shabby covers is very good, the text block firm and square, the gilt edges bright, the pages clean. On the flyleaf an owner's prominent signature in ink; on the front paste-down a bookplate (R O B Lane, KC, presumably the West London magistrate of that name and rank who was pictured with his magisterial colleagues in The Graphic, 29 November 1902, and whose death was reported in The Law Times, 2 January 1915).
