with paste decorated edges (1 resultados)

8vo, (192x120mm), viii,490p. Contemporary marbled calf, gilt roll border, rather worn with the joints split and backstrip faded, marbled edges; armorial bookplate of George Henkell. Despite these faults the book includes a nice, and not terribly common, example of red paste-decorated edges. (ESTC 21998) We make no apology for offering this odd volume as ESTC 35365 notes that 'other Edinburgh editions are piracies: this one too?' and cross-references this entry to that note. Furthermore, we find that paste-decorated edges on a book of this date are somewhat less than common. Please note that the advised postage is based on an average book, if possible the postage will be reduced to the correct amount and you will be notified by email.
