Description:
New York: John Lane, 1906. Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. Dark brown leather look embossed front board; embossed spine with gold print. Bumping and slight fraying to edges and corners of boards. Spine has a 5" long spilt where it looks like someone accidently cut it with a box opener. Pages detached along inside spine/gutter so book will lay open. Pages clean but a quick look through shows a couple of pages with neat underlining or pencil writing (I saw two pages with marks). Very slight browning to edges. 689 pages + additional advertising pages. Only print info stated is "MCMVI" on title page. "With two sketches by the Earl of Carlisle, Lithographs by J. Ley Pethybridge, andreproductions from portraits, photographs, etc." Large ex-libris ink stamp on ffep. Split along seam of front and back endpapers. Probably better than Good condition given it's age. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
