Sobre este artículo
Boston, Massachusetts: J.A. Lowell & Co, c. 1870. First thus. Paperback. Very Good. A small (very small) pocket guide to the card game of whist. Date of publication estimated from an ad reference to "General Grant." First and last pages include the following advertisements; front cover: Highland Stove Foundry, back cover Geo. F. Blake Mfg Steam Pumping Machinery, Inside back: Andrews Folding Beds, Inside Front: Commercial Union Insurance, and additional full-page ads for: Bent and Bush Hatters and military furnishers, Fitchburg Railroad, Thomas Groom Stationers, Boston Belting and Rubber Goods, Bovinine beef and mutton concentrate, Shore Line Route (Boston to New York Railroad), Blue Cross Pickles, and the Great Rock Island and Albert Lees Routes (railroad). This little booklet offers 'The Lead,' 'General Rules,' and 'Practical Hints.' 64mo (3 3/4" tall x 2 1/2" wide), 24 pages, thread saddle stitch, stiff printed wraps. A very good, clean neat copy overall with minor shelf wear, and some exterior soiling--a spot of staining or foxing to the cover fore-margin and fore-edge and spine (probably old finger staining), fore-edge stain extends throughout but at the fore-margin only, text not damaged, paper moderately yellowed but not fragile. A unique item!
