Sobre este artículo
Newcastle: T. Bewick & Son. Very Good. 1823. Fine Binding. This book has been re-bound, hard-bound in a fine binding of smooth green leather with gilt-stamping, raised bands, and gilt stamped leather labels on the spine. The covers show some light scuffing and sunning, edge-wear and light rubbing to the corners and spine-ends. The spine is lightly sunned. The binding is solid. The contents are bright and legible, with vignette illustrations, but also with some damp-staining to the outer edge of some of the pages. Limited, # 243, with a facsimile signature and "thumbprint" of Thomas Bewick, on the Limitation Page. .
