Description

Illustrated, Very Scarce

A very scarce work rebacked in a quarter calf binding with pictorial boards.

Illustrated with two plates. Collated, complete.

An entertaining volume full of nineteenth-century riddles, 'enigmas', charades, 'rebuses', forfeits, card tricks, puzzles and jokes. A very scarce work compiled by Edmund Russell.

Condition

Original pictorial boards rebacked. Externally sound, with significant rubbing to the spine and bumping to the extremities. A little shelf wear to the front board. The first three leaves are coming loose, but otherwise, internally, firmly bound. Pages are generally bright with the odd spot and handling mark.

Overall: Good
