Condition Continued: There is a small gift store label off the bottom edge of the rear cover, white and blue, a picture of a wrapped gift and I think an elf or an angel, cute. In very good shape. The company is E. H. Pusey in New York. There are no other attachments to be found anywhere in the book. The pages have some spotting/foxing. I would describe it as light to moderate, the light part once you get past the early pages. The half-title page and title page, as well as the, copyright, dedication, and contents pages are moderately to heavily spotted/foxed, in part a reaction to the glossy color frontispiece, which ironically is free of any foxing or spotting and has only a light amber hue at its margins. In front of the frontispiece is a tissue guard with a two paragraph description of the frontispiece. The print on it is blue and it is in very good shape. The plates begin after the text ends. The last few pages of the text are a List Of Illustrative Plates, each one being described. And before each plate (59 numbered plates, to be found in a section at the end of the book, and excluding the frontispiece) there is a page (not a tissue guard) giving a short description of the plate, with some of it repeated from the aforementioned list. The text pages facing the plates (the plates are on glossy paper) have foxing/spotting just off their top and outer edges. The plates, here, as was the case with the frontispiece, don't have what you would recognize, or I would recognize, as spotting or foxing. Rather they have an amber hue, restricted to their white margins, not the plates themselves. It looks like toning, that's what it looks like, not unattractive. The plates all appear to be in excellent condition. The text pages, putting aside the varying amounts of foxing, are in quite solid shape. I'm not seeing any soiling that I would distinguish from the foxing. And I'm not seeing any creasing. That's a clear positive. Nor are there any markings, and, as mentioned just the one attachment, and no names, no writing of any kind to be found anywhere.
