The Olio. Second Edition, Corrected and Enlarged, with a Portrait of the Author.

A good copy of the second edition, bound in quarter hessian by a professional bookbinder and retaining the original boards. The sewn binding is therefore nice and secure. This copy is from the bookbinder's own library and retains some of the binding instructions to himself (pictured). Neat handwritten title label to spine. The original boards are a bit rubbed (see images), but the binding is secure, the portrait of the author is present and the contents are clean. Overall, a good, authentic-feeling copy of the second edition, from the library of a professional bookbinder.
