Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Illustrated Edition. POMPEII ITS DESTRUCTION AND RE-DISCOVERY DRAWINGS & ENGRAVINGS 1880s ? I am pleased to offer a large and especially prepared book titled: Pompeii- Its Destruction and Re-Discovery with Engravings and Descriptions of the Arts and Architecture of Its Inhabitants by Sir William Gell and J. P. Gandy. This very large hard cover book (9 x 12 x 2, unpaginated including 24 pages of text and 70 plates with tissue-guards) was apparently imported by R. Worthington of New York, no dated found but research suggests the 1880s . The book is bound in light brown cloth boards with bevel edges and gilt and black decorations and titles on the cover and spine. Each of the plates has a tissue-guard and a separate facing page with a brief description of the contents of the plate. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The hard covers are bumped at the corners and spine tips including some fraying of the lower right-hand corner. The boards are also dust-dulled and the gilt a bit tarnished. Inside, the book is unmarked but there are many pages with foxing, typically those adjacent to the tissue-guard of the plates. There are also some pages without foxing. Both hinges (reinforced) are intact but the binding is cracked in each case front & back- somewhere nearby. The binding feels a bit loose but is hanging together. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
