Sobre este artículo
London: Edward Moxon and Co., 1866. Leather. Very Good. 6.5" by 5". Not Stated. The Bijou Edition of Martin F. Tupper's successful Proverbial Philosophy, in a full calf binding. Two hundredth thousand of the Bijou Edition of this work, in a full calf binding. All edges gilt. Ink inscription to the first blank page, dated 1869. Frontispiece depicting the author. Martin Farquhar Tupper (1810-1889) was an English writer and poet. His Proverbial Philosophy met at first with only moderate success. By 1867, however, it had passed through forty large editions in Britain, while nearly a million copies were sold in the United States. In a full calf binding. Externally smart, with rubbing to the extremities, and rubbing and fading to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean apart from some spotting to the first and last few pages. Very Good
