A propos de cet article

Very rare. Two books in one. The Poems Moral etc (1796) has finely engraved plates by H. Richter. The Minstrel was published by Catnach and Davison at Alnwick in 1807 and has designs by Mr Thurston engraved on wood by Mr Clenmel. Full tree calf binding contemporary with the printing. The gilt-decorated spine, with contrasting title panel. has a shallow, inoffensive crease. Hinges strained but secure. Binding in overall good condition. Text in very good, tight, clean condition, with only a little very light age-browning. Old owner's signature on front free end paper.
