First edition (1860 on the title page) In the original full cloth binding. If you take a look at the pictures of the copies for sale that match the pictures of the covers of this book you will find that the majority of them are selling between $350.00 and $500.00. You'll also see that they reference 11 or 12 color plates and state that the last plate is missing. I think the mystery of this recurring missing plate is a simple one to solve. The last plate, according to the list of plates on the Steel Engravings page, is titled 'Mr. Bunting Rejected.' That happens to be the title of the frontispiece plate. So the plate is not missing. Its place in the book is just misidentified on the page referencing the 'Steel Engravings.' The title page color engraving is identified on this page as the Frontispiece. So, there it is. In my book, there are twelve color plates, one is the frontispiece which is identified as the last plate, the second color plate is the title page (Plain Or Ringlets) which is identified as the frontispiece on the Steel Engravings page, and then there are ten color plates within the text. Of course I could be wrong in my effort to make sense of all this, but this makes the most sense to me. There are also forty-four wood engravings. At the bottom of the page listing the Wood Engravings 'Errata' is printed along with a reference to two errors. The illustrations are by John Leech. If you want to be more confused, the color title page/plate identifies the publisher as Bradbury & Evans of London, 1860. The next page, in black and white offers similar information, but identifies the publisher as Bradbury, Agnew, & Co. of London without the date. The first title page provides the address of 11 Bouverie Street, the second one as 10 Bouverie Street. My book does not have the publisher's advertisements at the rear, some of the other copies for sale do. However, my copy is in very nice condition and is being offered at a much less expensive price. You can see the covers in the photos. They are exceptionally clean. The gilt illustration on the front is nicely bright. That is also the case with the illustration and lettering on the spine. There is one tiny tear in the cloth on the rear side of the spine and one tiny tear in the cloth at the front side of the spine. The top and bottom edges of the spine have a little bit of crinkling and bending, a small spot of rubbing. The cover edges are in very good shape, no rub-through. Three of the four corners have small spots of rub-through. The book has a slight forward lean, but is very solidly bound from cover to cover. At the juncture between the rear inside cover and rear end paper, little bits of paper are missing and webbing can be seen in those places. However, the rear cover is solidly bound. The pages are in quite nice condition. The middle page edge is deckled or rough-cut. They did a very good job. Actually almost all the page edges are very smooth. I did find two instances where there was a slight loss at the outer edge of the page, not near the print. The pages are very clean. I didn't see any of what I would call soiling. You will find light spotting or foxing on some of them (usually only a few spots), a great many of them have none at all, a very few have what I would describe as moderate foxing. I found only a few creases, creasing is not an issue. I found only a few small tears. There are no markings. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The color plates are all in very good condition (the frontispiece has a spot off its top edge). Plain Or Ringlets was initially published in twelve parts between 1858 and 1860, this is the first book edition.…

Description de la boutique
Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
