About This Item
Wilmington, DE: Peter Brynberg. Poor. 1804. Hardcover. This is an early Wilimington, Deleware imprint of Noah Webster's "The Prompter." This is a fragile and worn copy. All pages are present, though the last 15-20 are dog-eared. and the final page's dog ear is nearly detached from the page. The paper-covered covers appear to be the original, but are very worn and nearly illegible, and the rear cover is missing a portion at the top; the spine is also lacking. This book was crudely rebound at some point, and the front end papers are taken from another book; there are no rear end papers. Please inquire if you would like more information. ; 24mo 5" - 6" tall; 96 pages .
