ADDISON, William. English Fairs and Markets. London: Batsford. 1953. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s red cloth with gilt to spine, in the dust jacket. The jacket and fabulous colour lithographs throughout by Barbara Jones. An attractive example of the quirky history of fairs and markets in England from the Middle Ages to today. An excellent copy, the book clean and bright, the binding tight and square, the contents fine. The dust jacket price-clipped, some light nicks to corners and along spine head and tail, the joints rubbed. But an attractive example overall. Uncommon.
