About This Item
Boston, Massachusetts: Houghton Mifflin, 1887. First Edition. Original Wraps. Good. 12mo, 6 7/8" tall, 76 pages plus 4 page publisher ads, red titles, paper wraps. A good clean first edition overall with moderate exterior shelf wear, but back strip of folded wraps chipped and splitting into two parts, sewn binding neat and solid with pages clean and lightly yellowed, with a tear at the top of the title and dedication pages due to careless opening of uncut signatures which has resulted in marginal edge pieces missing. Deserves professsional binding restoration and priced accordingly
