Description

Likely 1st edition [WorldCat] of this scarce small format dictionary. In general good order, though some looseness/opening between gatherings. Pages a little marked by use, but foxing only occasional. Fep removed. Signatures of two former owners to half title and front pastedown. Engraved title, lightly hand-coloured, and further engravings throughout. Some pages have had their corners cut, without affecting text, for no obvious reason, but this not a major issue. Gilt to all edges. Blind embossed boards well worn to all edges. 48mo. viii, 590pp
