(Old Books, 19th Century Books, Leather Books, Americana, Autograph Albums).

Autographs.
Published c. 1875-1888, United States.
c. 124 pages. Majority of pages signed, often on both sides. Hand written autographs and text in English.

Attractive oblong antiquarian leather autograph album binding. The front (owner's?) name is Emma A. Corliss, East Corinth, Vermont. The majority of autographs appear to be signed in Vermont and at the summit of Mount Washington in late Sept., 1883 in New Hampshire! One of the signatures is even the cook Henry Knowlton at the signal station on Sept. 26, 1883.

Book is physically old and shows some signs of handling and time. 

Binding gently age worn but still appealing, leather and joints slightly rubbed but still supple, small hole at top of spine leather, remains overall very attractive as an object.

Text block paper is gently age toned as typical, internally book remains mostly clean, tight and sound. A book which has been taken care of but may/ does not look like new.

Still attractive on the shelf. Book displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in rather nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws seem easy to overlook or forgive. 

Please review photos for more detailed attempt to present this unique and one of a kind book as it survives. 

We often over-describe any flaws that many sellers would not even bother to mention since most people would overlook them as minor and unworthy of comment. Many people tell us the books they receive from us are nicer in person than they appears on the screen. We want you to be clear about what you are buying, so we take numerous photos and try to describe it openly and honestly.

Book Measures c. 5" H x 7 1/2" W.
