Copyright page has dates of copyright (1880 and 1898) by Harper & Brothers, but one assumes this edition is from the early 20th c. 268 p., plus catalog, clean and unmarked except for names of former owners on front end page; very fine engravings; binding firm; sewn signatures; despite absence of d.j. the gilt lettering on the unfaded sepia boards is still bright, but there is some bumping of corners and rubbing at crown and foot of spine.
