About this Item
169p. Translated from the French by the Lady Blanche Murphy. Blue pebbled boards with gilt and black decoration, with a clear plastic jacket. This jacket has several large chips and some tears in the folds. The boards have heavy damage to the edges and the cloth is chipped and flaking off, especially at the corners and the spine. The entire top inch of the cloth backstrip is missing and there are innumerable small flakes and chips along the spine and edges. However, the color is still quite bright, thanks to the jacket. A piece of paper with an inscription dated 1898 is pasted to the front endpaper. Interior has some foxing and soil, ranging from very light to medium; the fox marks are light in color. Somebody once used the book to press flowers and there are still some bits of plant matter caught in the gutters, but the flower pressing does not seem to have left any horrifying stains. Early pages have bent corners. Weak binding. Size: 8vo - over 7 3/4 in - 9 3/4 in Tall. Year: 1882. Seller Inventory # BBS-061465
