About This Item
London: engraved by W. F. Wells and J. Laporte and published by H. R. Young, 56, Paternoster-Row, 1819.. Hardcover. Good. Folio. 2 leaves of text. Modern half green calf over green cloth. Black title label. Illustrated with 60 plates of English views by Gainsborough, engraved by W. F. Wells and J. Laporte. 37 of the plates with wash coloring. Abbey, Life, 203. This copy originally belonged to an institutional library; the first print has the institution's name perforated into it - more than 90% in the margins, but slightly affecting the image, without detracting in any way. A very good copy. Since this item is a good-sized folio, standard postage quotes do not apply. Shipping cost will be determined by destination and mode of transport.
