About This Item
Paris: E. Plon et Cie, 1881. Leather. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 437pp. Very nicely bound in 1/2 greenish blue leather over marble paper covered boards with gilt lettering and rule to spine. Lovely bookplate of standing lion and shield with the lettering "Non Leo Sed Gallus" above lion and shield. Marbled endpapers. Minor wear to exterior. Title-page is almost detached and several other pages are starting. Mild foxing. Though the front matter requires some care in handling, this is, overall, an attractive copy
