The Gentleman's Magazine and Historical Chronicle from July to December 1831, by Sylvanus Urban.
Published 1831, London by J.B. Nichols and Son.
676 pages. Text in English. Engraved frontis & half title, numerous engravings and illustrations throughout which includes a full page map of Colony of Liberia with an inset plan of Monrovia. Rare.

Antiquarian 1/2 leather binding, complete leather loss on spine, marbled covers.

A monthly periodical covering a wide range of topics. Of note for the early full page map of Liberia with a lengthy discussion of that then newly formed nation.

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, 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 rare 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.
