Sobre este artículo
Tall 8vo, quarter calf over blue marbled boards, titles stamped in gilt over black leather, 670pp. Calfskin shows some abrasions at spine, fading and bumping to corners; marbled boards show a few spots of discoloration and rubbing. Pages are wholly age toned at edges and show scattered spotting and foxing, with an ownership signature to front endpaper, else text is unmarked. Binding square and tight. A one volume edition of Robert Burton's classic of medical literature, psychology and satire, structured in three partitions. Prints the complete text of the 'New Edition', with a facsimile frontispiece of the Sixth Edition, the first complete volume. A lovely nineteenth century fine binding example, this being a very handsome copy.
