Bumping to the corners, with slight creasing to bottom-right tip. Spine dulled, with bumping and rubbing at the head and tail, and staining across the length; gilt softened but legible. Faint marks across the boards, though clean overall with gilt decorative elements sharp and well-defined. Binding square and tight. Previous owner's bookplate to decorative pastedown; age-related toning to endpapers, though frontispiece remains immaculate and protected by original tissue guard. Internally, the contents remains clean and tidy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"277\"\u003eFirst edition, published in 1894 by \u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eT.
