About This Item
298 Pages.
This classic old volume from the Odd Fellows organization has on the exterior four well-worn corners, the green fabric covering the boards is separating from the boards below it, the gold printing on the spine, front and back covers is fading (see photos), the bottom edge and parts of the top edge are worn and the is the remnants of a red covering that the book may have had at the top and bottom of the spine. The gilt closed book page edges on the top, side, and bottom are still there though probably dulled a bit from the original. The interior has no visible extraneous markings but has lots of page browning and foxing, especially on the front and back pages. The plates are all still protected by the vellum-like paper, and the sewn bindings are still sound and tight. The exterior of the book is in poor shape while the interior is in Good shape.
This book will be carefully wrapped and padded and then boxed and sent right away to you from here in New Jersey and comes to you with our genuine appreciation for your interest and for your interest.
