First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good-. 1st Edition. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, original binding brown paper covered boards half bound. In leather to corners and spine. Exterior is original and untreated, so the leather is powdery along with quite a bit a scuffing and soiling. The internal binding of the text portion of the pages is good but there is some cracking at the end pages and boards. Pages show various degrees of toning and foxing, some pages are brighter than some are quite dark - with the title page being the worst. The only handwriting found in the book is at the top of the preface where the name William Proctor is penned. Please note: this is volume 2 only and appears to contain 25 weeks of lessons.
