Wonderful antique edition of "Black Dwarf and Old Mortality" by Sir Walter Scott ( under a fictional authors name of Jedidiah Cleishbotham). This is one of the Alta Editions by Porter and Coates. Gorgeous red cloth cover with black graphics and gold gilt. It would be just as gorgeous on a bookshelf as to read. From my research I believe this was published in the late 1880s. Measures about 7.5" by 5". 331 pages.
Great vintage condition. There is expected wear to cover and spine and something that looks like a watermark on one corner of the pages. Some of the first pages have come loose but are still together. and there is typical signs of life and love of a book this age. A previous owner's name is in the front.

Please note: This is a vintage, preworn and/or preloved item, and as such is one of a kind and not eligible for returns or refunds. I do my utmost best to list any issues, but signs of wear should be expected, and there are occasionally small things I won't deem worthy of note. Please feel free to send me a missive with any questions. I'm truly happy to help in any way possible and I'm always up for a chat.
