About This Item
135 Pages.
This is a 130+-year-old book on music that contains the biographies of some famous musicians and composers. The book comes in brown boards with gold lettering on the front cover. The book's exterior has worn areas on all four corners and at the bottom and top of the spine. (the top of the spine also has a 3/4" tear in it on the left side) and a small one on the center of the front cover. On the rear cover, there are some scuffing marks and a white (looks like paint) stain. The guilted gold edge of the closed book on its top side remains in very good shape though. The interior book has a former owner's name inside the front cover but otherwise has no further visible extraneous markings or other distractions throughout the book and thus all printing and the many illustrations of the artists are all in a well-preserved and enjoyable condition. The bindings are beginning to loosen with a few pages coming out from them but the rest remaining tight.
If you order this book from us it will be carefully wrapped up, padded, and then boxed and sent right away to you and will come with our honest gratitude for your interest in this book and your order of it.
