A propos de cet article

The first edition of Pepys hugely revealing diary of Restoration England as originally deciphered from his shorthand. Half titles present. Full leather. Front board of both vols detached and rear boards in danger of it. Rear joints cracked. Nicks and chips to spine leather and 5cm x 4cm section leather missing from base of spine volume 2. Boards worn and scuffed, particularly at top edges. Foxing to pre and postlims, and offsetting from plates. However, internally clean and very presentable. Ideal for rebinding.
