About this Item

This is the second edition published in 1831 by Collins & Hannay of New York. Original brown leather binding. There is quite a bit of wear to the covers and spine, with rubbing and scuffing and the corners rubbed through and slightly bumped. There is a small chip to the leather at the top of the spine and a small tear to the leather at the bottom of the spine. The text block is square. One signature to the front of the book is starting to slip, but still attached. There is some browning to the pages. Decent copy of this early American dictionary. Worcester published this after a dispute with Noah Webster over the publishing rights of his dictionary. Seller Inventory # 31611
