About This Item
Coventry: John Jones, facing the Cross, 1765 Book. Good. Full leather. [xii], 812, [10] pages + maps and plates complete as listed. The only part that was missing was the verso of the plate facing page 722 - however a complete plate is now loosely inserted. Repairs to a few pages, some plates laid down on more modern paper including the frontispiece and title page, Kineton hundred map. Plates between pages 68/69 are window mounted. Light browning to page edges some spotting. In old full leather boards, spine replaced. Boards and in particular the corners are very worn. End papers also replaced - modern bookplate of Nicholas Wall QC to the front pastedown. Old bookplate to a font free end paper - E Phillips 1839. Some page edges a little frayed. Extra illsutrated with about 20 19th century prints and a few very small drawings of coats of arms. The main advantage of this, the third edition of Dugdale's work is that it includes the 5 maps reprinted from the 1st edition as well as the 5 maps from the 2nd edition. A large and heavy volume - substantial extra postage will be required to send it outside the UK..
