About This Item
Cincinnati: State of Ohio / C. J. Krehbiel, 1900. Ohio Centennial Edition. Hardcover. Fine. Quarto, 2 volumes (992pp., 911pp., plus index), profusely illustrated. A very handsome set, rebound at some expense in 1/2 brown calf spines over blue boards, with spine labels, and a custom-made cloth slipcase. Cream endpapers. Some very minor dust-soiling to the fore-edges of both volumes, which had likely been in a rough exterior state before this rebind. Overall, about fine; really a superlative example of this cornerstone volume of Ohioana, fit for the most demanding collector.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
