Sobre este artículo
New York: Hurst & Company, 1910. This is am early 20th Century reprint of a book originally published in 1875. It is in Very Good condition (click on photo). The book is bound in a light green cloth with a pastedown illustration on the front panel. The covers are lightly soiled, the spine tips are frayed, and the corners are rubbed, and several, bumped. There is also a very slight forward slant to the covers. As for the interior, the book has a penciled signature of a former owner on the front endpaper. The binding is secure, and the pages are mainly clean throughout, but with occasional margin stains. The paper stock was superior to that used in most Alger reprints I've seen, so the pages are NOT heavily browned. The book measures 5 by 7 1/2 inches and includes 272 pages. . Hard Cover. Very Good/No Dust Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
