12m0, bound in full green crushed levant morocco, gilt tooling on back and sides, inside morocco border, gilt edges, by BRADSTREET. Title has been skillfully repaired. Some former owner has copied a few words of the imprint on the title. A very slight hole in one leaf, evidently the result of natural wear of the paper. THE BOOK HAS AMPLE MARGINS, NOT A HEAD-LINE OR A CATCH-WORD BEING AFFECTED. EVEN THE NOTES AT SIDE-MARGINS ARE UNTOUCHED, AND A COUPLE OF LEAVES HAVE ROUGH EDGES.

AN EXCESSIVELY RARE EDITION. The copy sold at PUTTICK's in May, 1866, for £54 is presumably the one described in the LOCKER-LAMPSON Catalogue.
