What Our Customers Say...
Description
Fine Binding, First Edition, Illustrated, Leather Binding, Signed Binding
The first edition of this work.
With twelve plates by George Cruikshank, collated complete, this extremely interesting work also includes the original cloth binding adhered to the rear endpages, allowing further authenticity to this definitive first edition example of Victorian literature.
Direct from the library of the late Hugh Selbourne MD (1906-1973) a noted book collector and diarist.
Condition
Rebound calf binding with gilt detailing. Externally very smart, there is some minor wear to the joints and extremities only, with some strain to hinges. Internally, the pages are firmly bound and are bright and clean throughout, aside from the odd instance of spotting.
