About This Item
London: Dean & Sons, 11, Ludgate Hill, 1855. Soft Cover. Very Good binding. Octavo. [10] pp., illus. In printed wrappers; advertisement on the verso of the front wrapper; text concludes on the recto of the rear wrapper. The five interior leaves have printing on the recto only; all illustrated and with hand-coloring. No date, but based on the location of the offices of Dean & Sons, this was issued between 1845 and 1871. No illustrator or author noted, but one vignette with W. C. Harrison engraved at the bottom corner. This copy has been skillfully repaired, mending the folios at the spine and resewn; the wrappers have been similarly mended, the repair being barely visible. Only one copy located in OCLC the description of which matches this copy and is likely the same (OCLC: 932901513). Remarkably uncommon and charming book.
