A propos de cet article

Assumed First Edition. Includes illustrative engravings. Common gambling games are described, as are common tricks and techniques for cheating and beating the odds. Jonathan Harrington Green (1813–1887) wrote a quite a bit as "The Reformed Gambler." In his younger years he was notorious as one of the most skilled card players in the US. For unspecified reasons he changed his ways, and became active in the crusade against gambling. After all the notoriety, it is curious to note that he was destitute in his later years. A wonderful example of 19th century binding, with rounded spine and elaborate decoration. Brown cloth over boards is illustrated in black ink with some bright gilt. Spine exhibits some sunning with lightly faded gilt and variegated coloring to cloth. Ends of spine are crushed with a little fraying. Perimeters exhibit light wear, a little more at corners and shoulders. Binding is secure, with a little play to it. Front cover and spine exhibit some mottled lightening along top edges and sides of spine. Front hinge was professionally repaired. Brown pastedowns exhibit minimal wear. Ffep is missing lower corner at 1.5" tear. Interior is free of writing and intentional marks. Inside pages have little scattered foxing. A couple signatures show small gaps in adjoining gutters. Interior is free of writing and intentional marks. Inside pages exhibit gentle tanning and minimal scattered foxing. Book may exhibit additional minor signs of age or wear. 312 pages + 2 pp of publisher's ads. 5.5 x 7.5 inches. Postage for oversized and international shipping will be calculated by size and weight.
