The Old Curiosity Shop (Part Two): Hard Times / Miscellaneous: Sketches of Young Couples (The Works of Charles Dickens, Volume Seventeen)

No edition/printing details stated beyond what is in the bibliographic details. Good+ hardcover/no dj. The principle flaw is a tender front hinge with includes a starter in the bottom half. In a related vein, the ffep and frontispiece are shaken but still attached at the top half. The remaining contents (510 pp.) appear clean and securely bound. Gilt top edge; distinctive cut of the fore and bottom edges. Red cloth boards with gilt spine lettering and decoration. These boards have some light rubbing in the extremities, but are otherwise VG. NOT an ex-library copy.
