Item description from seller

First Edition (SD). This is a book about toasts and tributes, of all kinds on all occasions. There are lots of them, 301 pages worth. You can see the covers in the photographs. They look pretty good. The gilt lettering and gilt and green design have held up quite well. It's nice and shiny on the front. The spine ends have just a little crinkling. There is one teeny tiny spot of rub-through on the front middle edge, otherwise the edges are in very nice shape, quite bright as well. The top page edge is gilt. It looks very good, very shiny. The middle and bottom page edges are deckled or rough-cut. They did a good job. The spine does have a forward lean but the book is solidly bound from cover to cover. I found only three instances of a very thin space at the juncture between two facing pages. All six pages were tightly bound from top to bottom. The covers are nicely, tightly bound, the junctures between them and their facing end papers are free of wear. The pages are exceptionally clean. Scrolling through, I haven't found any instances of soiling (not really soiling, but there is a teeny tiny black spot just off the edge of the 'Books by Mr. Gray's page). I haven't found any conspicuous creasing, no placeholder creases. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. …

Store description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
