Selected Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson

Modern Library, New York, 1950. Hard Cover. Book condition: As New. Dust jacket condition: Very Good. 7-1/4" by 5", 930 numbered pages. Book is As New. Exterior is spotlessly clean, no corner bumps or edge dings, heel of spine undamaged head has very slight bumping, hinges are undamaged and strong. Except for name/date/city inked on copyright page, interior is completely free of writing, stray marks, stains of any kind and paper damage of any sort; hinges are strong and the spine is intact and not cracked. Jacket is very good, clean and free of tears, scrapes or folds; it is price-clipped. However, it has masking tape on the back--along both top and bottom edges, along both folds and along the entire spine; this tape has not affected the book at all (see photos), but it has discolored the jacket (see photos) wherever the tape was placed.
