Description

Leather Binding, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding

Sixth edition or later. A charming classical dictionary designed to fit in a pocket, with the main object being to produce a book containing as much information as possible in a small compass. Produced by Whittaker & Co., a British publisher, most active in the 1830s founded by Joseph Whitaker. They were primarily known for producing "The Bookseller" and "Whitaker's Almanack". Dated from the British Library. Bound by A. Denny.

Condition

Bound in half crushed morocco. Externally, sound with rubbing resulting in minor loss to the extremities. Light fading to the spine with the odd small mark to the boards. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with the odd small spot. Light spotting to the endpapers with a contemporary ink inscription to the front endpaper. Bound by A. Denny.

Overall: Good
