Mary Botham Howitt – Tales in Verse – First Edition 1836
£175.00
First edition, first printing. Published by William Darton & Son in London, 1836. This is a very good copy. Bound in tan morocco, the boards are worn with surface scratching and mildly bumped at the spine tips. There is a slight separation to the top and tails of the spines. The spine is also worn, and the dipped scoring is a nice addition. There is a small and neat previous owners inscription to a Edward Viobait from his father. The internals are mostly clean but very faintly toned. The frontispiece and further illustrations are all present. Overall, this is a very good copy of a beautiful production.
Tales in verse from the author of The Spider and the Fly.
