Seller Notes: “The book has been rebound and recased into its original cover. The cloth cover is a bit soiled ... “The book has been rebound and recased into its original cover. The cloth cover is a bit soiled with some wear at the corners and edges. The front board has suffered from water damage which transferred red ink from another book to the upper corner. Most of this has been removed and the cloth restrengthened with starch and acrylic paint. Not a perfect repair, but not as noticeable as it once was and is not stabilized. The spine ends have been repaired and the corners of the boards have been strengthened. The original endcaps have been retained. The original endpapers have been retained—there is a penciled name, place and date (1894) on the front endpaper. The textblock has been rebound into the cover using new strong cloth spine reinforcing (instead of the original cheap mesh mull). The original endpapers have been retained with the hinges reinforced with similar paper. Although toned with age, pages are otherwise clean with little foxing to speak of, no major marks or tears.”
