A propos de cet article

London, published by the editor (presumably Joseph Galpin), 1856 and 1857. Third edition. Quarto. Two volumes bound into one. 12 numbered pages of text in Volume 1. Volume 1 illustrated with a frontispiece and 24 full page plates. Each plate with an adjacent un-numbered page of descriptive text. Volume 2 illustrated with 24 full page plates, again each with an un-numbered adjacent page of descriptive text as well as a further 4 un-numbered plates, 3 of which are folding. A scarce, very detailed and highly technical manual on the construction of staircases and handrails. Originally published in 1849 as a single volume work written and illustrated by Langley Banks, a stair casing specialist and apprentice to Peter Nicholson, which was simply entitled ‘The Joiner’s Instructor’. This third edition includes Langley’s original work which comprises the contents of Volume 1 and the first three plates of Volume 2 with the text and plates continued and extended by Joseph Galpin and three other specialist contributors. This edition, as per Langley’s original, was almost certainly published in monthly parts, hence the title page of Volume 1 being dated 1856 whilst the title page of volume 2 is dated 1857. The work goes into great detail on the construction of different types of complex staircases with detailed instructions for calculating and setting out a wide variety of staircases, handrails and their associated mouldings. Bound in contemporary half calf with cloth sides. Professionally rebacked with the remains of the original spine mounted onto the new one. Corners worn with partial loss to the leather covering on all four of them. Otherwise, a clean copy of an uncommon work, with the text block sound and the binding in good condition. NB The price of this item is variable dependent on your chosen payment method. Please feel free to make contact for further information on this item or on payment options.

Description de la boutique

I sell a small but diverse selection of mainly non-fiction antiquarian books online via ABE and also on Ebay under the trading name of N1.Books-and-Photographs. I tend to specialise in illustrated books, books on history, architecture, the applied arts, crafts and sciences but there are usually a few titles amongst my stock that stray into other fields. I am also a trained, working book restorer with over 30 years experience and am happy to quote on any book restoration project. You can see many examples of my work at www.sussexbookrestoration.co.uk and you are welcome to contact me via the link at that website should you have a book that may be in need of restoration or repair.…
