Item description from seller

First edition, mixed issue with many (but not all) of Wise's first issue points, and without the errata; 8vo, pp. xiv, [2], 257, [1], [2] ads; original blue paper-covered boards, drab paper shelf-back, printed paper label on spine; small crack starting at the top of the lower joint, else clean and sound, and all else near fine. Early ownership signature on front free endpaper of Eliza M Geough 1818 (i.e., McGeough). Wise, p. 58-60: "The Fourth Canto of Childe Harold has hitherto been regarded as the least uncommon of the first editions of Byron's poems. As a fact the correct book is one of the scarcest. In spite of every endeavour I have only succeeded in finding two uncut copies of the genuine first issue in addition to the one here described.".
