Hi,
Here we have for sale one of the rarest Wisdens, the fourth edition of the hardback run :
1899 Original Hardback in good+ condition.
I hope the photographs will show this book off as best as they can, it is a nice Wisden, one or two small niggles which are explained in the folowing paragraph. Internally it is very nice, complete and clean some light marks to the odd page, odd spot and magnificent photoplate.
Bright gilt to front and spine.
The boards however have been cleaned to the far edge and are a little dark towards that edge as can be seen in the pictures, tinyest touch up of the front hinge which have a small amount of weakness as many of the early hardbacks do but far from off putting. Tiny nicks to spine cloth front board hinge if being picky. Rare.
Fabulously priced as 1899s can be found for £9000+ so £2500+ less here.
£10 Postage, sent under private insurance to the UK.
If you are a non UK buyer please contact us first before purchasing.
Payment via cheque or BACS only.
Many Thanks
Bosunbooks.
