Rebound with leather spine and marbled paper covered boards. There are four raised bands and gilt titles to spine. Measuring approx. 22cm x 16cm x 5cm. There is a twist to spine. Occasional minor dents/scuffs to lather. Internally there are more recent endpapers to front and rear boards, reinforced strip to inner edges. The original front endpaper has patchy browning/foxing, has couple of marks to edges, and has a couple of names (C. L. Houlton & St. Francis Library). Tint bump and crease to title page. The last couple of leaves sit a little proud and thus are a touch bumped to edges (reverse of last leaf lightly grubby). Very occasional spots and marks. Some corner bumps/creases and occasional corner chips. Lightly bumped to edges. Overall in clean and firm condition.
