Hi,
Here we have a rare 1919 Original Hardback Wisden, in Very Good Condition.
In my opinion the rarest 20th Century Wisden Hardback.
The lettering (gilt) is bright and strong to both the front and the spine. The boards are excellent to the front, feignt marks to the spine cloth and the rear board has some bobbling by the spine. (I inch by 3, please see the picture) .
Inside the hinges are very good, very tightly bound. The yellow pastedowns are good, there is a mark to the top left of the right hand page. Internally very good, the only thing to note is a small knck to the middle, see the pages at the top by the crease for about an inch , it is not off putting but needs to be stated. Owners name on right page that is small and a price of £1 in pencil! Minimal foxing. Nice photoplate.
A lovely book. Rare,
No restoration.
Please see the large photographs.
More photographs available on request.
Postage via Special Delivery with £2500 insurance, Free
Happy Collecting,
Cheers
Chris
