Herndon's Lincoln : the true story of a great life : the history and personal recollections of Abraham Lincoln condensed into LIFE OF LINCOLN

Descripción

Albert & Charles Boni. New York. 1930. 511 pages. First edition thus. Originally published back in 1889; Herndon's Lincoln was condensed into one 511 page volume with index. This new edition follows the original text with amendments as new evidence came to light about Lincoln; alongside a new 33 page editor's preface. Book is tight and clean; with two minor scuffs to cloth on front panel. Quality made with sewn binding; binding, hinges and pages are sound and strong. A tiny, faint sliver of a stain along bottom page edges that you'd have to look for; otherwise fine. The real plum however is the incredibly rare DJ. They just don't exist as most of them have crumbled away. Even more impressive is there is only one chip to the DJ at the crown; mostly shallow with it slightly larger on rear wrap-around; yet still smaller than a dime. This is a most attractive copy, incredibly well-preserved and outright rare in its original and desirable DJ. An incredible copy; uncommon and rare in DJ. N° de ref. del artículo 001916
