What Our Customers Say...

Description

Leather Binding, Rebound, Scarce

A fascinating comprehensive referential work on the customs and statues of St. Paul's Cathedral in London, the mother church of the Diocese of London. 

Edited from the original manuscripts by W. Sparrow Simpson, former Minor Canon and Librarian in St. Paul's Cathedral, and Rector of the United Parishes of St. Matthew Friday Street, as well as being one of the honorary librarians of the Archbishop of Canterbury. 

Handsomely bound in half morocco with the gilt crest of St. Paul's Cathedral to the front board. 

An interesting association copy, given to David J. Johnson from A.R.B. Fuller, former librarian of St. Paul's Cathedral and author of 'The Minor Corporations of the Secular Cathedrals...with Special Reference to the Minor Canons of St Paul's Cathedral'. Dated 1961.

Condition

Handsomely bound in half morocco with the gilt crest of St. Paul's Cathedral to the front board. Externally, very smart, with some minor rubbing to the spine. Previous owner's ink inscription to the verso of the front free-endpaper. Internally, front hinge lightly strained, but remaining binding is firm. A few spots to the first and last few pages and the fore-edge, otherwise pages are bright and clean.

Very Good Indeed
