Hardcover, decorative brown publisher’s cloth stamped in black, spine heavily decorated in gold, with image of Robinson Crusoe. 630pp. Illustrated with several full page engravings. Brown endpapers. Including a emoir of the author and an essay on his writings. No name, no book-plate, no writing or marking, etc. Mild foxing to edges of bulked sheets, albeit text and illustrations are clean exhibiting a touch of foxing to only a few leaves and then limited to the margins. A nice copy dating from the 1870’s. Light blemishes to rear board though a superior copy of a book usually found in only fair condition. Hinges are strong and not cracked, Gilt is bright and tips show only the lightest of wear. A very good antiquarian copy of the full text of this classic novel.
