The Boston Almanac for the Year 1868.
Published 1868, Boston by George Coolidge.
252 pages. Text in English. Oversized folding city plan map at front (now in pieces due to extensive separation along fold-lines). Please see photos for condition.

Cloth covered boards, lovely floral embossed patterns, smooth spine, gilt title.

Book remains well preserved and very attractive on the shelf. It displays a beautiful age patina and is in nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws easy to overlook or forgive. 

The map is printed on paper which has toned and is now extensively split along original fold lines. There appears to be no loss of printed area, so if desired it could readily be backed and made attractive outside the book.

Please review photos for more detail and our best attempt to convey how this antique item survives.

Book Measures c. 5 1/4" H x 3 1/4" W.
