Publisher's cloth binding, gilt title lettering. Sold as a group of photos.
Book is physically old and shows some signs of handling and time. Book is not new or in "new" condition.
Binding heavily age worn and lacking spine cloth, covers detached.
Photos gently age toned, still clean, final pair of photos with old adhesions to center.
Still attractive on the shelf. The book displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in overall nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws which may be present seem easy to overlook or forgive.
