Item description from seller

String Tied Pamphlet. First Edition. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. 83p. A good copy, the oaktag-like [thin cardboard] covers (which I beieve were homemade, as the original covers perished) are torn at the front crease for about 2 1/4" toward the bottom, the covers are somewhat soiled, and the short title is handwritten in ink on the front cover. The pages are relatively clean, although the title-page has some browning (about half vertically) perhaps from a newspaper clipping which once resided there and there is a little dog-earing at the forecorners of the pages. It is a readable copy. The title continues: and Progress of the Duello, by a Southron. NUC shows only one location, the Library of Congress. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
