Original full leather but with spine heavily worn and several holes worn through so that quires are visible, spine title compartment only partially present, scuffing to boards with wear along edges. Partially torn/chipped early nineteenth-century New York City bookseller ticket "Sold by | Mahlon Day | No. 374 Pearl-st. | New York" at top left of front pastedown; light pencil scribbling on front endpapers and rear pastedown, some chipping at edges of prelims and terminal leaves probably from miscreant insects. Interior leaves heavily browned, foxing, and some dampstains. Rear free endpaper missing. As well as being a bookseller, Mahlon Day (1790-1854) was an active publisher from 1816 to 1844 specializing in juvenile titles. Day completed an apprenticeship with a Morristown, New Jersey printer in 1811 and soon thereafter moved to New York City opening his first storefront by 1815 on Beaver Street then moving to Water Street and then shifting among three Pearl Street addresses, the last two being 376 Pearl Street from 1825 to 1833 and finally at 374 Pearl from 1833 to 1844.
