Title: Melbourne House
Description: Book is Good in no dust jacket. Decorative Cloth binding, J. Nisbet & Co., London, Binding sound and tight. Pages clean and free of folds, foxing or annotations. I would describe this as Very Good except that the binder applied a bit more force than finesse when cutting pages 37 through 44, and the margins of those pages are ragged. There is no loss of text. Brown cloth boards tidy and straight with a wee bit of patina from handling, bright gilt and clear black lettering and decoration. Free of sunfade. Some shelf rubbing on bottom corners and edges, but really quite minor given the age of the book. No date, but given as school prize in 1896. Free of foxing. A jolly nice book. With B&W ills. 553pp + 2 Size 12mo keywords: victorian english england children's story

Cover boards straight and in reasonable condition with an attractive gilt decoration on the front board; faded but clear. Similar elaborate decoration on spine is rather more faded, but still discernable. Spine corners have some wear and slight fraying of two corners, not threatening to worsen. Some general shelf wear also, but this is a solid, well-bound book and is good for a few more reads yet. Owner inscription on fly. Engraved frontis and many full-page plates.
