About This Item
Breitkopf & Hartel, Leipzig 13" X 10.5" in beautiful marbled boards with pebble grained brown leather spine and corners. All edges marbled; endpapers marbled. The leather shows a few minor abrasions, but I would grade the book at least NEAR FINE condition. This is a one-of-a-kind gorgeous old book dating probably from the last quarter of the 19th century when wealthy people indulged themselves by having beautiful things like this book created. This volume contains the music of Wagner's Lohengrin as adapted for the piano. There are 169pp of fairly challenging piano music here. The book, incidentally, originally came from the Whitney estate on long Island. Years ago I bought a dozen or so of these music books which came from that estate. Some were marked, and some, like this one, were not.. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/No Jacket.
